Carl D. Marci, MD, a leader in the fields of social and consumer neuroscience, is Chief Medical Officer at Cava Capital and was formerly the Chief Neuroscientist at the Nielsen Company. He also is on the faculty of Harvard Medical School and is a psychiatrist at Massachusetts General Hospital.
Eye opening…[Marci] offers suggestions for better dealing with our
digital age and the lure these devices have on our brains to affect
our attention span, decision making, and the ability to build
connections with others.
*Technical Communication*
Marci is the rare voice who can speak with authority as a
psychiatrist, neuroscientist, and practicing consumer psychologist.
His diagnosis of the American condition is clear—we are addicted to
our digital lifestyles and consequently less connected to each
other. I advise everyone who cares about their mental, physical,
and financial well-being to read Marci’s lively book and follow his
prescriptions for a healthy tech-life balance.
*Michael L. Platt, author of The Leader’s Brain*
A fascinating and comprehensive look at how technology, media, and
information are affecting our brains and our behavior. Marci
stresses the importance of the prefrontal cortex in managing our
health and well-being, and he shows how our increasing use of and
reliance on phones and social media have affected our attention
spans, decision making, and ability to build connections with
others.
*Elizabeth Johnson, Executive Director of the Wharton Neuroscience
Initiative, University of Pennsylvania*
