Technology is Not the Problem

We all know how much of our personal data is collected, analyzed, and used to target us. Yet, even with this awareness, we continue to engage with technology as if nothing has changed. But why? Technology is Not the Problem delves into this paradox, offering a thought-provoking examination of our relationship with the digital world.

Praised by experts like Matt Ridley (How Innovation Works) and Tiffany Jenkins (BBC Radio 4), this book takes a critical look at how technology has shaped a world that revolves around our needs, preferences, and personalities. The question it raises: Is this comfort and personalization diminishing our sense of self?

Author Harkness explores the historical forces that have led us to the “Personalised Century,” challenging readers to rethink how they engage with technology and the world around them. In a world where ease is traded for autonomy, this book provides a fresh perspective on the impacts of technology on our lives and identities.

Essential reading for anyone interested in understanding the deeper implications of our digital age.
