How Attention Became the World's Most Endangered Resource
Book • 2024
In The Sirens' Call, Chris Hayes delves into the impact of the attention economy on our lives, politics, and society.

Hayes draws on a wide range of sources, including philosophers, media theorists, and psychologists, to provide a holistic framework for understanding and reclaiming control over our attention in a world dominated by 'attentional warlordism'.
