Johann Hari

Our ability to pay attention is collapsing. From the New York Times bestselling author of Chasing the Scream and Lost Connections comes a groundbreaking examination of why this is happening--and how to get our attention back. In the United States, teenagers can focus on one task for only sixty-five seconds at a time, and office workers average only three minutes. Like so many of us, Johann Hari was finding that constantly switching from device to device and tab to tab was a diminishing and depressing way to live. He tried all sorts of self-help solutions--even abandoning his phone for three months--but nothing seemed to work. So Hari went on an epic journey across the world to interview the leading experts on human attention--and he discovered that everything we think we know about this crisis is wrong.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. Hari found that there are twelve deep causes of this crisis, from the decline of mind-wandering to rising pollution, all of which have robbed some of our attention. In Stolen Focus, he introduces readers to Silicon Valley dissidents who learned to hack human attention, and veterinarians who diagnose dogs with ADHD. He explores a favela in Rio de Janeiro where everyone lost their attention in a particularly surreal way, and an office in New Zealand that discovered a remarkable technique to restore workers' productivity.Crucially, Hari learned how we can reclaim our focus--as individuals, and as a society--if we are determined to fight for it. Stolen Focus will transform the debate about attention and finally show us how to get it back.

From the New York Times bestselling author of Chasing the Scream: The First and Last Days of the War on Drugs, a startling challenge to our thinking about depression and anxiety.Award-winning journalist Johann Hari suffered from depression since he was a child and started taking antidepressants when he was a teenager. He was told—like his entire generation—that his problem was caused by a chemical imbalance in his brain. As an adult, trained in the social sciences, he began to investigate this question—and he learned that almost everything we have been told about depression and anxiety is wrong. Across the world, Hari discovered social scientists who were uncovering the real causes—and they are mostly not in our brains, but in the way we live today. Hari’s journey took him from the people living in the tunnels beneath Las Vegas, to an Amish community in Indiana, to an uprising in Berlin—all showing in vivid and dramatic detail these new insights. They lead to solutions radically different from the ones we have been offered up until now.Just as Chasing the Scream transformed the global debate about addiction, with over twenty million views for his TED talk and the animation based on it, Lost Connections will lead us to a very different debate about depression and anxiety—one that shows how, together, we can end this epidemic.

Revised and UpdatedThe New York Times BestsellerWhat if everything you think you know about addiction is wrong? Johann Hari’s journey into the heart of the war on drugs led him to ask this question--and to write the book that gave rise to his viral TED talk, viewed more than 62 million times, and inspired the feature film The United States vs. Billie Holiday and the documentary series The Fix .One of Johann Hari’s earliest memories is of trying to wake up one of his relatives and not being able to. As he grew older, he realized he had addiction in his family. Confused, not knowing what to do, he set out and traveled over 30,000 miles over three years to discover what really causes addiction--and what really solves it.He uncovered a range of remarkable human stories--of how the war on drugs began with Billie Holiday, the great jazz singer, being stalked and killed by a racist policeman; of the scientist who discovered the surprising key to addiction; and of the countries that ended their own war on drugs--with extraordinary results.Chasing the Scream is the story of a life-changing journey that transformed the addiction debate internationally--and showed the world that the opposite of addiction is connection.

The bestselling author of Lost Connections and Stolen Focus offers a revelatory look at the drugs upending weight loss as we knew it—from his personal experience on Ozempic to what these drugs mean for our society’s deeply dysfunctional relationship with food, weight, and our bodiesIn January 2023, bestselling author Johann Hari started to inject himself once a week with Ozempic, the diabetes drug that produces significant weight loss. He wasn’t alone—credible predictions suggest that in two years, a quarter of the U.S. population will be taking this class of drug. Proponents say that this is a biological solution to a biological problem. While 95 percent of diets fail, the average person taking one of the new drugs will lose a quarter of their body weight in six months, and keep it off for as long as they take it. Here is a moment of liberation from an illness that massively increases your chances of diabetes, dementia, and cancer, and causes 10 percent of all deaths. Still, Hari was wildly conflicted. The massive rise in obesity rates around the world in the last half century didn’t happen because something went wrong with human biology. It happened because something went disastrously wrong with our We began to eat food designed to be maximally addictive. We built cities that are impossible to walk or bike around. We became much more stressed, making us seek out more comfort snacks. From this perspective, the new weight loss drugs arrive at a moment of madness. We built a food system that poisons us, then decided en masse to inject ourselves with a different potential poison that puts us off all food.A personal journey through weight loss combined with scientific evidence from experts, Magic Pill explores, as only Hari can, questions How did we get to this point? What does it reveal about our society that we couldn’t solve this problem socially, and instead turned to potentially risky pharmaceutical solutions? And will this free us from social pressure to conform to an ideal body type—or make that pressure even more dangerously intense?

In januari 2023 begon bestsellerauteur Johann Hari zichzelf wekelijks met Ozempic te injecteren. Hoewel oorspronkelijk ontwikkeld voor diabetespatiënten, staat Ozempic inmiddels bekend als een wondermiddel voor gewichtsverlies. Maar zijn deze nieuwe afslankmedicijnen wel zo spectaculair als ze lijken? Met hulp van experts wereldwijd onderzoekt Johann Hari de effecten en hij ontdekt dat er naast de enorme voordelen ook twaalf significante risico’s verbonden zijn aan deze medicijnen, en dat het gebruik ervan onze bestaande opvattingen over schaamte, wilskracht en genezing op de proef stelt.Wondermiddel is een onmisbaar boek dat de grote veranderingen in de wereld van afslankmedicijnen duidt en ons de mogelijkheid biedt om onze disfunctionele relatie met eten, gewicht en ons lichaam te herstellen.Over De aandacht verloren:‘Stop met wat je aan het doen bent en lees dit boek!’ – Rutger Bregman‘Hari schrijft als een droom.

Fascinante."Yuval Noah Harari, autor do best-seller SapiensUma revolucionária e nova história da humanidade, apresentada através do prisma do trabalho pelo conceituado antropologista James Suzman.O trabalho define quem somos. Determina nosso status e nos dita como, onde e com quem gastamos a maior parte do nosso tempo. Faz a mediação da nossa autoavaliação e molda nossos valores. Mas somos tão intimamente conectados ao trabalho quanto pensamos? Nossos ancestrais na Idade da Pedra também viviam para trabalhar e trabalhavam para viver? E como seria um mundo no qual o trabalho tivesse um papel menos importante?Para responder essas questões, James Suzman traça uma ampla história do "trabalho", das origens da vida na Terra até nosso presente cada vez mais automatizado, desafiando alguns dos nossos mais fortes pressupostos sobre quem somos. Trazendo conceitos da antropologia, arqueologia, biologia evolucionária, zoologia, física e economia, ele mostra que enquanto evoluímos para encontrar diversão e propósito no trabalho, durante a maior parte da história humana nossos ancestrais trabalharam muito menos e pensavam de modo bem diferente sobre trabalho em relação ao que trabalhamos e pensamos hoje. Ele demonstra como nossa cultura do trabalho tem raízes na revolução agrícola, ocorrida há 10 mil anos. Nossa ideia do que é ser humano foi transformada pela transição do forrageamento para a produção de comida e, posteriormente, pela nossa migração para as cidades.

No hay mercado más lucrativo que el de la atención. ¿Quiénes son los que batallan por nuestro tiempo? Y, ¿cómo recuperarlo?La atención ha entrado en una profunda crisis. ¿Cuáles son los motivos?, ¿quién nos la está robando?, y, más importante aún, ¿cómo podemos recuperar nuestra capacidad de concentración? Un demoledor ensayo que indaga en una de las grandes epidemias del momento y en sus posibles soluciones.Según algunos de los últimos estudios publicados, los adolescentes solo son capaces de concentrarse en una tarea durante sesenta y cinco segundos, mientras que los adultos apenas pueden aguantar tres minutos. Como muchos de nosotros, Johann Hari es consciente del peligro que supone la omnipresencia de las pantallas, así como de esa imperiosa necesidad que nos asalta de pasar constantemente de un dispositivo a otro sin levantar la vista. Hoy en día, lograr el estado de concentración necesario para acometer labores intelectualmente complejas y exigentes es casi una quimera.Hari decidió entrevistar a los principales expertos en concentración humana para identificar las causas de esta crisis. En El valor de la atención desglosa los doce factores que la generaron –desde nuestra incapacidad de dejar fluir la mente hasta la contaminación en las ciudades–, y denuncia a las poderosas empresas que nos están robando el foco. Además, nos da las herramientas para entender la situación, defendernos y recuperar nuestra capacidad de vivir con atención.Pregúntate si tienes la capacidad de atención suficiente para leer este libro. Si es que sí, adelante, léelo. Si no… entonces con más razón aún.

En janvier 2023, Johann Hari a commencé à s’injecter chaque semaine de l’Ozempic, l’un de ces nouveaux traitements capables de provoquer une perte de poids spectaculaire. Il est loin d’être un cas isolé : selon certaines estimations, d’ici quelques années, un quart des Américains pourraient prendre ce type de médicament. Alors que près de 80 % des régimes échouent, ces traitements permettent à certains de perdre jusqu’à un quart de leur poids en six mois. Pour leurs partisans, c’est une libération face à une condition qui augmente fortement le risque de diabète, de cancer et de mort prématurée.Et pourtant, Hari reste profondément partagé. Ces médicaments sont-ils vraiment aussi efficaces qu’on le prétend ? S’agit-il d’un remède miracle ou d’une illusion ? Pour répondre à cette question essentielle, il a parcouru le monde – d’Islande à Tokyo, en passant par Minneapolis – à la rencontre des plus grands spécialistes du sujet. Il a découvert que, malgré des bénéfices indéniables, ces traitements présentent aussi douze risques majeurs.Mais surtout, cette enquête l’a amené à interroger nos certitudes sur la honte, la volonté, et le sens de la guérison. Que révèlent ces médicaments sur la véritable nature de l’obésité ? Quels troubles psychologiques peuvent surgir lorsque notre rapport à l’alimentation est brusquement bouleversé ? Sont-ils une délivrance ou un nouveau symptôme de notre lien profondément troublé à la nourriture et au corps ?Ces médicaments sont sur le point de transformer nos vies – pour le meilleur ou pour le pire. Il est urgent de comprendre leur fonctionnement, sur le plan scientifique, émotionnel et culturel.Pilule miracle est le guide indispensable d’une révolution déjà en marche – que certains comparent, par son ampleur, à l’arrivée du smartphone.
