Who's in charge - you or your phone?

Have you ever asked yourself why you are spending less time interacting with people in person and more time sitting alone behind a pixilated screen? As we furiously type into our keypads in search of the Holy Grail – an empty inbox – our happiness and well-being dissipate.

Through eye-opening studies, interviews with some of our world’s most captivating thought leaders and stories gleaned from his 25+ years as a leadership trainer and professor, Dr. Anthony Silard will help you realize what many of us are losing in the digital age—ourselves and our most important relationships—and provide a roadmap to reclaim them.

Consider what some of these thought leaders have to say about Screened In:

“The game of life was thrown a major curve ball when the first iPhone was released in 2007. If loneliness, anxiety, and depression are the indicators—as Anthony Silard compellingly makes the case, with a raft of largely unknown research to back him up—then most of us are striking out. If you want to get on base in the field of meaningful, supportive human relationships, this is the one book you can't do without. Buy it and adapt!”
—Marshall Goldsmith, New York Times bestselling author of What Got You Here Won’t Get You There

“Screened In is a sharp, readable, and savvy guide to making the most of those weapons of mass distraction in our pockets. Silard shows why we are so addicted to screens and—even more important—how we can kick the habit to live richer lives. Put down your phone and read it!”
—Carl Honoré, international bestselling author of In Praise of Slow

“Ever since the first iPhone was released in 2007, lamentations, protests, and cries of despair about our increasingly disconnected world have been everywhere and workable solutions have been nowhere—until Screened In. It’s an essential book for reducing screen time and embracing authentic relationships in the digital age.”
—Harriet Lerner, New York Times bestselling author of The Dance of Anger

“Anthony Silard has captured the subversive and damaging aspects of the gift of the technological age. The research is clear—it fools us into thinking we are more connected when in fact we are more socially isolated. Fortunately, as Tony suggests, the remedies are within your grasp—if you wish to use them. Ignore his message at your peril!”
—Richard Boyatzis, New York Times bestselling co-author of Primal Leadership
