Beschreibungen
<p><span>Toward a Holistic Intelligence: Life on the Other Side of the Digital Barrier</span><span> is a critical examination of how the Internet, our current digital age, and people’s continuous use of digital devices is adversely affecting their thought processes, working memories, attention spans, and overall level of intelligence. In doing so, it explores how a larger intelligence based primarily on direct insight and creative absorption, qualities which are integrally part of people’s emotive and sensorial lives, might allow for a clearer exploration of their world and themselves at a time in which our cognitive lives are being so thoroughly abrogated by the Internet and its resultant technologies.</span></p>
<p><span>Beginning with an examination of how our current digital age is negatively affecting our cognitive lives and overall intelligence, </span><span>Toward a Holistic Intelligence</span><span> then explores how an intelligence based on direct insight, one which germinates from our sensorial and emotive lives, might provide a possible solution.</span></p>
