This book recalls life on a small family farm in Western Kentucky in the 1940s. It’s a way of life that was extraordinarily rich and fulfilling, but was also devilishly hard work. It’s truly rare today for a farm family to do all of the work described, however, farmers still grow corn, milk cows, and feed hogs, but they do so in a much more business-like way than back then. Wondering if current life is as satisfactory, come with the author as the old ways are re-created in this fascinating book.

Former Google advertising strategist, now Oxford-trained philosopher James Williams launches a plea to society and to the tech industry to help ensure that the technology we all carry with us every day does not distract us from pursuing our true goals in life. As information becomes ever more plentiful, the resource that is becoming more scarce is our attention. In this 'attention economy', we need to recognise the fundamental impacts of our new information environment on our lives in order to take back control. Drawing on insights ranging from Diogenes to contemporary tech leaders, Williams's thoughtful and impassioned analysis is sure to provoke discussion and debate. Williams is the inaugural winner of the Nine Dots Prize, a new Prize for creative thinking that tackles contemporary social issues. This title is also available as Open Access.
