We think our inability to focus is a personal failure to exert enough willpower over our devices. The truth is even more disturbing: our focus has been stolen by powerful external forces that have left us uniquely vulnerable to corporations determined to raid our attention for profit. How can we reclaim it? Join The Office's B.J. Novak and New York Times bestselling author Johann Hari for a conversation on the causes of this problem and how — as individuals, and as a society — we can get it back. Tune in to find out!
