Seeking Attention offers thirty compelling 'portraits' of modern life - from 'The Hypochondriac' to 'The Self-Driving Car' - guiding readers through the complex world of modern media and technology.
Blending philosophy, psychology, and cultural criticism, Pettman explores the 'attention economy' and 'industrial distraction complex', showing how our awareness is shaped both by personal choices and external influences. With fresh insights into attention's role in personal and collective well-being, Seeking Attention is essential reading for anyone seeking ways to reclaim control.
