{"product_id":"book-foud","title":"Restless Devices","description":"\u003cb\u003eWe're being formed by our devices.\u003c\/b\u003e Today's digital technologies are designed to captivate our attention and encroach on our boundaries, shaping how we relate to time and space, to ourselves and others, even to God. While we enjoy the benefits of digital tech, many of us feel troubled with its power and exhausted by its demands for permanent connectivity. Yet even as we grow disenchanted, attempting to resist the digital \"powers that be\" might seem like a losing battle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSociologist Felicia Wu Song has spent years considering the personal and collective dynamics of living in digital ecosystems. In this book she combines psychological, neurological, and sociological insights with theological reflection to explore two major questions: \u003ci\u003eWhat kind of people are we becoming with personal technologies in hand?\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003ewho do we really want to be?\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSong unpacks the soft tyranny of the digital age, including the values embedded in our apps and the economic systems that drive our habits and their subtle yet pervasive effects. She then explores pathways of meaningful resistance that can be found in Christian tradition, especially counter-narratives about human worth, embodiment, relationality, and time. Considering digital practices through the lens of \"liturgy\" and formation, she offers practical experiments for individual and communal change.","brand":"christianaudio","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":49359431598384,"sku":"BDfoud","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audio CD","offer_id":49359433269552,"sku":"ZEfoud","price":45.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audio MP3-CD","offer_id":49359433302320,"sku":"ZMfoud","price":45.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/foud-Square-cover.jpg?v=1769751091","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-foud","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
