Johann Hari

La atención ha entrado en una profunda crisis. ¿Cuáles son los motivos?, ¿quién nos la está robando?, y, más importante aún, ¿cómo podemos recuperar nuestra capacidad de concentración? Un demoledor ensayo que indaga en una de las grandes epidemias del momento y en sus posibles soluciones.Segun algunos de los ultimos estudios publicados, los adolescentes solo son capaces de concentrarse en una tarea durante sesenta y cinco segundos, mientras que los adultos apenas pueden aguantar tres minutos. Como muchos de nosotros, Johann Hari es consciente del peligro que supone la omnipresencia de las pantallas, asi como de esa imperiosa necesidad que nos asalta de pasar constantemente de un dispositivo a otro sin levantar la vista. Hoy en dia, lograr el estado de concentracion necesario para acometer labores intelectualmente complejas y exigentes es casi una quimera.Hari decidio entrevistar a los principales expertos en concentracion humana para identificar las causas de esta crisis. En El valor de la atencion desglosa los doce factores que la generaron desde nuestra incapacidad de dejar fluir la mente hasta la contaminacion en las ciudades, y denuncia a las poderosas empresas que nos estan robando el foco. Ademas, nos da las herramientas para entender la situacion, defendernos y recuperar nuestra capacidad de vivir con atencion.Preguntate si tienes la capacidad de atencion suficiente para leer este libro. Si es que si, adelante, leelo. Si no entonces con mas razon aunEste libro es exactamente lo que el mundo necesita ahora mismo. Os prometo que merece la pena dedicarle tiempo y, por supuesto, vuestra atencion. Oprah WinfreyEste libro no puede ser mas vital. Por favor, centrate y leelo. Naomi KleinJohann Hari apunta que debemos hacer para protegernos a nosotros mismos, a nuestros hijos y a nuestras democracias. Hillary ClintonUna exploracion magnificamente investigada y argumentada del colapso de la capacidad de atencion de la humanidad. Es una historia necesaria de contar, pero cuya causa y consecuencias son dificiles de captar y articular sin conjeturas, prejuicios o ideologia. Hari no solo consigue esto y mas, sino que lo hace con el ritmo, la chispa y la energia del mejor escritor de thrillers. Stephen FryEl libro que el mundo necesita para ganar la guerra contra la distraccion. Adam Grant

Viajando a los largo de todo el mundo, Hari descubrió que los científicos sociales estaban encontrando evidencias de que la depresión y la ansiedad no son causadas por un desequilibrio químico en nuestro cerebro, sino que son en gran parte causados por problemas clave que tiene que ver con la forma en que vivimos. Este viaje lo llevó desde las personas que viven en los túneles de Las Vegas, a una serie de experimentos alucinantes en Baltimore, a una comunidad Amish en Indiana... Todas las experiencias le mostraron con vívidos y dramáticos detalles nuevas perspectivas. Una vez que descubrió nueve causas reales de depresión y ansiedad, esto le condujo hacia los científicos que están descubriendo siete soluciones radicalmente diferentes a las que nos han ofrecido hasta ahora y que funcionan.

Any reader can use this workbook for Stolen Focus: Why You Cant Pay Attention--and How to Think Deeply Again by Johann Hari and find immediate help in applying its major lessons.Johann Hari is a man on a journey to redemption. Born in Glasgow, Scotland, Hari grew up in London. He showed early promise as a writer when he jointly won The Times Student News Journalist of the Year award in 2000 for his contributions to the Kings College, Cambridge newspaper, Varsity. Hari left the paper amid allegations of unethical behavior. Despite this, he attained first-class honors when he achieved his social and political science qualifications in 2001. Hari then launched his journalism career with a two-year stint at The Statesman before becoming a regular columnist at The Independent. He also contributed columns to major publications, including The Huffington Post and The New York Times. Hari was awarded the Young Journalist of the Year trophy at the 2003 Press Gazette awards while working as an arts critic for the BBC. In 2009, Hari gained significant recognition when he was listed as one of the Top 100 most influential Left-wingers by The Telegraph. His career collapsed in 2011 when several bloggers exposed that Hari had plagiarized and fabricated a lot of the information in his work, among other ethical infractions. Disgraced, Hari left The Independent in 2012, reinventing himself as an author. He released his first book, Chasing the Scream: The First and Last Days of the War on Drugs, in 2015.

Neste livro corajoso, escrito como denúncia e manifesto, Johann Hari rastreia a história do proibicionismo para acusar a hipocrisia moralista das autoridades estatais. Engajado contra as calamidades da represso, o jornalista e escritor Johann Hari investigou a fundo o paradoxo do proibicionismo neste livro-reportagem. Sem negligenciar os perigos do consumo de narcoticos, que devem ser objeto de politicas medico-sociais semelhantes as do alcool e do tabaco, o autor suiço-britanico denuncia os enormes prejuizos socioeconomicos causados pelo massacre de consumidores e vendedores postos na ilegalidade. Dos morros cariocas as montanhas suiças, passando por EUA, Canada, Mexico, Uruguai e sua Gr-Bretanha natal, Hari corporifica um balanço realista do problema. O livro mostra como a guerra transformou os paises na rota do trafico e tem obliterado um debate honesto sobre as verdadeiras origens da adiço."Maravilhoso, impossivel de largar." Noam Chomsky"Narrativa eletrizante e jornalismo de alto nivel." Naomi Klein"O livro de Hari e o antidoto perfeito para a guerra as drogas, uma das injustiças morais menos discutidas de nossos tempos." Glenn Greenwald"As historias neste livro so de cair o queixo: horripilantes, hilarias, incriveis. E o fato de que sejam todas verdadeiras e to fascinante quanto perturbador e revoltante."

Over the last decade, an extraordinary scientific breakthrough has taken place. A new kind of drug has arrived on the market, working in an unprecedented way to revolutionise weight loss and dieting. In 2023, Johann Hari began injecting himself with one of the weight loss drugs transforming how we look, feel and live. What began as a personal journey soon took him on an international investigation, tackling some of the most world-changing issues as he asked: Who should be taking these medications? How are they set to change not only the way we think about weight loss, but our economies? What are the benefits and what are the risks? This is the book to read on the weight loss drugs taking over the world.

El periodista Johann Hari se embarcó en un viaje épico de tres años de duración y cerca de 50.000 kilómetros con el fi n de desvelar los secretos de la guerra contra las drogas; y de esa manera pudo constatar que existe una disparidad asombrosa entre lo que nos han transmitido y lo que en realidad sucede. Para exponer tan reveladores descubrimientos, Hari recurre a la narracion de historias reales de diversas personas que han visto transformadas sus vidas por culpa de esta guerra. Entre ellas encontramos desde un traficante transexual que busca a su madre en Brooklyn hasta un joven sicario mexicano que busca una salida a su encrucijada. El libro comienza con algo sorprendente que descubrio el propio autor: que en el inicio de la guerra contra las drogas se encuentra el acoso y asesinato de Billie Holiday por parte del hombre que lanzo esta cruzada; y concluye con la historia de un osado doctor que consiguio que su pais legalizase todas las drogas, desde el cannabis hasta el crack, con resultados mas que notables.
