In nearly every moment of our waking lives, we face a barrage of advertising enticements, branding efforts, sponsored social media, commercials, and other efforts to harvest our attention. Over the last century, few times or spaces have remained uncultivated by the "attention merchants", contributing to the distracted, unfocused tenor of our times. Tim Wu argues that this is not simply the byproduct of recent inventions, but the end result of more than a century's growth and expansion in the industries that feed on human attention.

Indispensable Guide Book to the Age of the Ad
Revisado: 04-08-18
Tim Wu’s book is an extraordinary review of processes he says began to be industrialized about 200 years ago. From New York broadsheets to internet clickbait, it’s all here. It isn’t just about advertising and its close cousin propaganda. It’s about the farming of human consciousness for profit. The book is prescient. It was published before the exposure of Facebook’s feckless behavior, but it could have incorporated that debacle seamlessly, and sounds the broadest possible warning that there is more to come.
