Condizione: Very Good. : En las últimas décadas, hemos sido testigos de una revolución en la forma en que se controla el conocimiento y la información. Este cambio rápido ha puesto en peligro nuestra forma de pensar. Sin detenerse a considerar el costo, el mundo se ha apresurado a adoptar los productos y servicios de cuatro corporaciones titánicas: Amazon, Facebook, Apple y Google. Estas empresas venden su eficiencia y pretenden hacer del mundo un lugar mejor, pero lo que han hecho en cambio es permitir un nivel embriagador de conveniencia diaria. A medida que estas empresas se han expandido, comercializándose como defensoras de la individualidad y el pluralismo, sus algoritmos nos han presionado a la conformidad y han devastado la privacidad. Han producido una cultura inestable y estrecha de desinformación y nos han puesto en el camino hacia un mundo sin contemplación privada, pensamiento autónomo o introspección solitaria: un mundo sin mente. Para restaurar nuestras vidas interiores, debemos evitar ser cooptados por estas gigantescas empresas y comprender las ideas que sustentan su éxito.

Hardcover. Condizione: Sehr gut. Gebraucht - Sehr gut Sg - leichte Beschädigungen oder Verschmutzungen, ungelesenes Mängelexemplar, gestempelt - Over the past few decades there has been a revolution in terms of who controls knowledge and information. This rapid change has imperilled the way we think. Without pausing to consider the cost, the world has rushed to embrace the products and services of four titanic corporations. We shop with Amazon; socialise on Facebook; turn to Apple for entertainment; and rely on Google for information. These firms sell their efficiency and purport to make the world a better place, but what they have done instead is to enable an intoxicating level of daily convenience. As these companies have expanded, marketing themselves as champions of individuality and pluralism, their algorithms have pressed us into conformity and laid waste to privacy. They have produced an unstable and narrow culture of misinformation, and put us on a path to a world without private contemplation, autonomous thought, or solitary introspection - a world without mind. In order to restore our inner lives, we must avoid being co-opted by these gigantic companies, and understand the ideas that underpin their success.Elegantly tracing the intellectual history of computer science - from the Descartes and the enlightenment to Alan Turing to Stuart Brand and the hippie origins of today's Silicon Valley - Foer exposes the dark underpinnings of our most idealistic dreams for technology. The corporate ambitions of Google, Facebook, Apple, and Amazon, he argues, are trampling longstanding liberal values, especially intellectual property and privacy. This is a nascent stage in the total automation and homogenization of social, political, and intellectual life. By reclaiming our private authority over how we intellectually engage with the world, we have the power to stem the tide.At stake is nothing less than who we are, and what we will become. There have been monopolists in the past but today's corporate giants have far more nefarious aims. They're monopolists who want access to every facet of our identities and influence over every corner of our decision-making. Until now few have grasped the sheer scale of the threat. Foer explains not just the looming existential crisis but the imperative of resistance.…
