Praise for iDisorder

Praise for iDisorder by Dr. Larry Rosen:

"One strength of 'iDisorder' is Dr. Rosen’s cleareyed view of technology and its uses. He doesn’t oppose it. In fact, his view is quite the opposite. What we need, he says, is a sense of restorative balance and self-awareness." – New York Times

"Parents will find this book particularly helpful. Dr. Rosen suggests a whole set of remedies for children’s techno-addiction." – New York Times

"I loved Dr. Rosen’s book from beginning to end. It is thought-provoking and alarming. However, it is a book that each of us should read because of the ubiquity of technology. It is important for us to learn how to control technology but not vice versa." - BlogCritic

“iDisorder” is a pleasant surprise — lean, thoughtful, clearly written and full of ideas and data you’ll want to throw into dinner-party conversation." – New York Times

"As might be assumed, there is little in iDisorder over which to argue. The content is solid, the studies referenced are germane and compelling, and the tone in which Rosen writes is well-suited to the task at hand. Rosen has dedicated his career to understanding how we use technology, and for that, as well as this book, he should be praised." – PsychCentral.com (the Internet's largest and oldest mental health website

"Dr. Larry Rosen is recognized as an international expert in the 'psychology of technology'" – San Diego Union-Tribune

"If your dependence on technology makes you ignore your wife and avoid your to-do list, you may have an 'iDisorder.'" – Psychology Today

"An early student of how the Internet, mobile devices and other technologies affect human behavior, Rosen notes that many individuals now interact obsessively with technology." – Kirkus

"Rosen’s ideas are thought-provoking, and the changes he suggests are realistic to implement. Very readable, the book strikes a balance between being accessible for the general reader yet remaining interesting and stimulating for those more familiar with the psychological field.” – Library Journal

"The beauty of Dr. Rosen's book is that it provides readers like me with strategies and tactics to help them avoid iDisorders (such as narcissism, technology addiction, disconnectivity anxiety, mood disorders, ADHD, social phobias, hypochondriasis, body dysmorphic disorder, eating disorders, and electronic voyeurism) without completely eliminating technology from their lives.
