Present Shock: When Everything Happens Now

?If the end of the twentieth century can be characterized by futurism, the twenty-first can be defined by presentism.â€ Â This is the moment weâ€™ve been waiting for, explains award-winning media theorist Douglas Rushkoff, but we donâ€™t seem to have any time in which to live it. Instead we remain poised and frozen, overwhelmed by an always-on More »

[ 5.0 stars ] "Rushkoff does an amazing job of drawing connections between the the things in life we don't necessarily see as connected. Yet he doesn't over-do it. He takes his time to deconstruct our present shocked world, without introducing a complexity that would shroud his point. ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 2.0 stars ] "Rushkoff peppers the reader with facts, some of which are true and interesting, some of which are outright wrong and dimwitted (e.g. he calls Homer "a Greek hero"). He hops from one subject to another, exemplifying the problem he decries, i.e. information bombardment which leads to the inability to separate the important facts from the dross. And speaking of dross, he litters his prose with pseudo ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 1.0 stars ] "The idea is interesting and worth exploring, but I am not sure the author knows what he wants to say. He makes an argument, but instead of following through he seems to loose his train of thought and digresses to something unrelated.

[ 1.0 stars ] "I struggled to finish this meandering, confused and thoroughly unenlightening jumble of half baked thoughts (whoever edited this mess should find a new vocation). After the first 200 pages I simply quick scanned my way through the remaining pages to the merciful end. The BIG IDEA?: Turns out, in 'The Present' (though it will probably work in The Future too, though what distracts us in T ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 3.0 stars ] "I found it a bit disappointing that someone of Rushkoff's impressive credentials would choose to spent the first 80-100 pages minutely examining what I would term the lowest common denominators of pop culture such as sitcoms and films, most of which don't even merit serious discussion. Apparently, he seems to think these time-fillers constitute the thought currents of our culture, but I tr ..." Courtesy by Amazon
