Clinician and neurotherapist Mari Swingle looks at what smartphones, computers, gaming and social media are doing to our brains and behaviour. Drawing on her own clinical work with EEG, she describes the changes she sees in attention, mood, sleep, learning and relationships, from young children to adults, and why constant connectivity is so hard to put down.

Written for parents, teachers and anyone uneasy about their own screen habits. The second edition is expanded and ends with practical ways to take back control of technology use.
