Took me over a year to get past the start of this book, but once I did I really enjoyed it. I listened to the audiobook alongside reading it and I was impressed by its range of topics. 'Stolen Focus' tells the story of the author's interest in attention span and focus and his tech-free life for a while. He then goes on to interview many scientists and researchers about various causes for increased attention deficiency in modern society. I particularly enjoyed his sections about sleep and free play for children. I also was surprised to hear about how some people have exaggerated role of genetics regarding ADHD with twin studies.
