The tools and understanding you need to protect yourself, and your family.
Smartphone Nation will transform the way you – and your children – understand your devices and how they affect you. In this practical, agenda-setting book, Professor Kaitlyn Regehr – one of the world’s foremost experts on digital literacy – sets out how you can keep the advantages of the internet whilst identifying often hidden dangers and stepping away when you’re over-reliant.
The ‘Smartphone-free Childhood’ movement has done an amazing job of alerting many of us to the dangers inherent in our, and our kids’, use of devices. But it is not enough. In reality, being a part of the online world is essential for modern life, and, at some point we – and our children – all have to dive in. Covering misogyny, pornography, body image, advertising, violence and more, Smartphone Nation provides a wealth of information – plus practical exercises and clear takeaways - to help you think critically about the content you’re consuming, and how it is ‘fed’ to you.
You’ll learn how to game your algorithm, how to limit targeted advertising, how to catch misinformation and how to improve your digital nutrition.
Essential reading for anyone who has ever worried about how compulsively they check their phone – or who is considering getting one for their kid – Smartphone Nation will equip you not only to survive in the digital space, but to thrive.
