Smartphone Nation

Why We're All Addicted to Screens and What You Can Do About It
A groundbreaking exploration of how smartphones, algorithms and AI are changing the way we think, act and feel, and a clear, empowering toolkit for living a healthier, happier life online. From leading expert and Associate Professor at University College London, Dr Kaitlyn Regehr.

'Smartphone Nation demystifies the algorithms driving our digital world and equips us with the practical tools needed to build a healthier, happier future for ourselves and our kids.’ - Daisy Greenwell, co-founder Smartphone-Free Childhood.

The tools you need to protect yourself – and your family – from online harm.

If you’re worried about the effect screens are having on your kids, or will have in the future, Smartphone Nation is the book you need. We advise young people, when they encounter online harm to speak to the adults in their lives. But most adults don’t understand the algorithmic processes driving this content and so, we don’t have the tools to support young people when they most need it.

Now, in Smartphone Nation, we do.

Perfect for readers of The Anxious Generation, in this highly practical book, Dr Kaitlyn Regehr – one of the UK’s leading experts on digital literacy – explains what we and our kids are being fed on our devices and, crucially, how to take control over it.

This life-changing guide provides practical tips for talking to kids about smartphone use, covering tricky topics like misogyny, body image, sexual content and misinformation. It’s essential reading for parents, and anyone who has ever thought there’s more to life than staring at a screen.
