Description
<p>"Tom Rademacher is not asking you to give up your tech. What he does is make a convincing case for carving out intentional time for the analog, for the experiences we can't get from our devices—real books and paper, face-to-face activities, paint and cardboard, physical movement. As we spend more and more time behind screens, the strategies in this refreshing book are exactly what we need to nurture what's human in all of us."</p>
