The symptoms of iDisorder includes changes to your brain's ability to process information
and your ability to relate to the world due to your daily use of media and technology
resulting in signs and symptoms of psychological disorders, such as stress, sleeplessness,
and a compulsive need to check in with all of your technology. The authors argue that
his constant flow of information is more than the human mind was meant to handle.
Based on decades of research and expertise in the "psychology of technology," the
authors offer explanations for why many of us are suffering from an "iDisorder."
They offer strategies to help us overcome the iDisorder we all feel in our lives while
still making use of all that technology offers. Our world is not going to change,
and technology will continue to penetrate society even deeper leaving us little chance
to react to the seemingly daily additions to our lives. The authors teach us how to
stay human in an increasingly technological world, and that there is a way to achieve
harmony with technology without being controlled by the constant influx of information
