The future of feeling building empathy in a tech-obsessed world
(Unknown)

Title from container.

Performed by Kaitlin Ugolik Phillips.

There's no doubt that technology has made it easier to communicate. It's also easier to shut someone out when confronted with online discourse. Why bother to understand strangers or even acquaintances when we can troll them, block them, or just click "Unfriend" and never look back? However briefly satisfying that might be, it's also potentially eroding one of the most human traits: empathy. So what does the future look like when something so vital to a peaceful, healthy, and productive society is fading away? The cautionary, yet hopeful, answer is in this champion for an endangered emotion. In this audiobook, Kaitlin Ugolik Phillips shares her own personal stories as well as those of doctors, entrepreneurs, teachers, journalists, and scientists about moving innovation and technology forward without succumbing to isolation. This book is for anyone interested in how the brain works, how they're subtly being rewired to work differently, and what that ultimately means for humans.
