707: Johann Hari | Why You Can't Pay Attention—And What to Do About It

Johann Hari (@johannhari101) is a New York Times best-selling author and top-rated TED speaker. His latest book is Stolen Focus: Why You Can't Pay Attention—And How to Think Deeply Again.

  • It's not just the internet and technology: our lack of focus has actually been happening for generations.
