"""This book by Knibbs takes you on a deep dive into the how and why our tech habits shape us, mixing solid research with real-talk about social media, gaming, and mental health. It's packed with insights and no-nonsense advice for understanding your tech use and highlights the positives about our digital world. A must-read if you're looking to make sense of the tech-life balance and use technology in a way that's healthy and positive."" - Jessica Stone, Ph.D. ""At a time when doom-mongering and bad science dominates, at last we have a book which presents the latest understanding about tech, the web and screens, recognising both its dangers and its strengths. Written by a clinician who has also deeply researched the science, this book will be a fantastic resource for professionals, parents and interested lay people. We can read it and trust we are properly informed, no longer out of our depth, and have some tools to work with."" - Graham Music, Consultant Child and Adolescent Psychotherapist"
