A World Without Mind (eBook, ePUB)

Produktbeschreibung

A WORLD WITHOUT MIND is a cri de coeur by one of America's leading journalists that asks: what would happen if ideas were extinguished?

In the same way the convenience brought to us by fast food has changed our waistlines, health and souls for the worse, Foer argues that we've grown so distant from energetic intellectual life that we've forgotten its essential job: the business of producing ideas.

The industry that controls the production of culture is now concentrated in the hands of just a few corporations with breathtaking ambitions. The monopolies of Amazon, Google and Facebook aspire to alter how we read and what we read. In this deeply researched and polemical book, Foer shows how this data revolution threatens creative expression, and how we can preserve culture to keep it from going the same way as the small family farm.

A penetrating and unsettling portrait of our present and recent past, A WORLD WITHOUT MIND is also an inspiring manifesto for how we can still revive our culture and live in a world where ideas have consequences.
