«Digital Minimalism – Choosing a focused life in a noisy world» by Cal Newport
What is the book about:
Cal Newport has written a guide that leads us through the digital jungle. Not in a pushy or hysterical way, but in a more thoughtful and questioning manner. His objective is for us to detach ourselves from the permanent pressure or need to be online. The author encourages us to rethink our own behavior and helps us approach media platforms and channels with a certain amount of skepticism.
Why I recommend this book:
I am convinced that nothing can replace personal contact between people. This applies both in the private sphere and to our dealings with customers. We all spend far too much time in front of screens and should learn to place more value on personal relationships and make time for them.
