"The Shallows: What the Internet Is Doing to Our Brains" by Nicholas Carr is a thought-provoking exploration of how the internet is reshaping the way we think, read, and remember. Carr examines the cognitive effects of digital technology, arguing that constant exposure to online content is altering our ability to focus, process information, and engage in deep, reflective thinking. Drawing on research in neuroscience and psychology, as well as historical parallels with past technological shifts, the book raises important questions about the long-term implications of our digital habits. "The Shallows" challenges readers to consider how the internet, while offering unprecedented access to information, may also be eroding our capacity for sustained intellectual engagement.
