Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The enjoyment of reading how the author is watching a beloved ritual in his life slip away at his kitchen table made me want to keep reading this book about change. His morning practice of spreading out some newspapers around his morning breakfast to enjoy some in depth articles about a few of his favorite subjects is now in flux with catching snippets of a subject on TV, or looking over his cell phones text messages or video on his I Pod of last nights baseball game, maybe check a friends blog. It is more about our fingers, as St.Clair notes, moving across techy objects than our minds going into much detail.
I love this book! Researched subject matter on many fronts and well balanced with St. Clair's personal daily walk thru the rapid technology advances we all enjoy to our benefit and convenience - usually. His ride thru the Boston T to work is right on the real experience in real time many know all to well. As well as his description of speed and how we expect a certain speed that a few years ago would of been mind blowing. We expect more speed and speed changes us.
Really recommend this book for everyone. Its helpful in reflection and encouraging in its outlook. Price of book is high- even for the digital but worth it.
