Intelligence in the Digital Age

Beginning with a discussion of how the Internet and digital technologies may be affecting people’s attention spans, working memories, and capacities for deep thought and reading at a level that becomes addictive, the book then moves to discussions which concern how this development might impede the search for a larger, metaphysical intelligence.

Lyn Lesch went on to write four books on education reform. In 2020, he published Intelligence in the Digital Age, which concerns how our current Internet age might be making it increasingly difficult for people to explore a more expansive consciousness.
