We are all using (and parenting around) a technology we didn't grow up with; it makes sense that we feel overwhelmed. In \u003ci\u003eSmartphone Nation\u003c\/i\u003e, Regehr explains how these technologies work, giving you the power to change the way you (and your family) use your devices. Regehr proposes a new, food pyramid-like framework for understanding and improving our digital consumption. Some tech, like nutrient-dense food, is good for us; it is vital in our lives. But so much of what we consume via algorithms is like candy that rots our teeth: it's disastrous for our wellbeing. Regehr's groundbreaking research reveals how we can reclaim control and maintain a healthy digital diet. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eEssential reading anyone who knows there's more to life than staring at a screen--or who wants to raise children who believe that, too--\u003ci\u003eSmartphone Nation \u003c\/i\u003eshows how to: \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003e- Navigate the attention economy, which prioritizes engagement at all costs\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e- Improve your digital nutrition for better mental health\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e- Spring clean your viewing experience\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e- Game the algorithm\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e- Catch misinformation\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e- Parent your children in the digital age\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThoughtful, clearsighted, and empowering, \u003ci\u003eSmartphone Nation \u003c\/i\u003eis essential reading for anyone who owns a phone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kaitlyn Regehr\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Dial Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/28\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.40w x 1.20d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798217154593","brand":"Ripon Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44282583416877,"sku":"9798217154593","price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0681\/0501\/1245\/files\/img_a3755414-13ee-40b2-9ebc-798edc05018c.jpg?v=1761577050","url":"https:\/\/riponbookstore.com\/products\/smartphone-nation-building-digital-boundaries-when-offline-isnt-an-option-9798217154593","provider":"Ripon Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
