The Shallows

I picked this up because it was referenced in Deep Work by Cal Newport (which I'd definitely recommend). I feel bad for rating this book so low, but it seemed to just reiterate concepts and research I've already heard. Carr wrote this from 2007-2009, and it's age showed given it's focus on technology. I probably would have rated it higher if I had read it closer to the publishing date, but it was super interesting to read about technology of the last decade as “innovative” and “on the leading edge.”

Interested? Stick to the abstract and pick up a book on the “similar” list on Amazon.
