Review of 'Glass Cage' on 'Goodreads'

Although repetitive at times,  Carr makes some  interest points about automation and how it affects us.
While machines like computers and smart phones make us more efficient and - hypothetically more productive, it comes with a cost. They diminish the extraordinary abilities that make us humans.
