TechnoStress: Coping with Technology @Work @Home @Play

"Modern technology was designed to empower us and set us free. So why do we often feel more like its slaves than its masters? From pagers to Web sites, e-mail to fax machines, each new "techno-helper" places greater demands on us." "In this book, psychologist Michelle Weil and educator Larry Rosen explain why technology makes people feel under the gun - and how to preserve your humanity and sanity in a digital world." "But for all of the problems it identifies, TechnoStress is not another polemic against technology. In fact, the authors are proponents for technology. "Technotherapist" Michelle Weil and researcher Larry Rosen have spent the past two decades showing people how to thrive in the age of high-tech. Rather than teaching you how to avoid technology, they show you how to make it work for you."--BOOK JACKET.
