POPSThe myth of the Concentration Oasis "The ability to focus on a single task, relatively uninterrupted, is the strange anomaly in the history of our psychological development. (...) New technology has not created some sort of unnatural cyber-world (...) and when we compare the level of stress and distraction it causes in comparison to the life of the average low-tech family, it's nothing. (...) The past, and for most people on the planet, the present, have never been an oasis of mental calm and creativity. And anyone who thinks they have it hard because people keep emailing them should trying bringing up a room of kids with nothing but two pairs of hands and a cooking pot."
