From the publisher

'A brilliant and important book' - Chris van Tulleken, author of Ultra-Processed People

'A smart first step into completely resetting your digital life' - Stylist


A social media ban for under 16s does not make the problem disappear. Teenagers will have to use their devices differently now and Smartphone Nation provides the practical solutions you and your family need to take back control.

In this acclaimed book, Dr Kaityn Regehr, one of the world's leading digital literacy experts, gives you the knowledge and the language to explain the reasons behind the ban, why social media can be so harmful and the often disturbing reasons why we each see the particular content we do. The tools in Smartphone Nation are there to help you understand, advocate, and parent around these tricky, constantly changing issues.

From issues of misinformation, body dysmorphia, pornography, to online bullying, this essential guide helps you and your family become more intentional over screen usage - whatever the screen you are using.
