Description

The tools and understanding you need to protect yourself, and your family.

Smartphone Nation will transform the way you – and your loved ones – understand your devices and how they affect you. In this practical, agenda-setting book, Dr Kaitlyn Regehr – one of the UK's leading experts on digital literacy – sets out how you can keep the advantages of the internet whilst identifying often hidden dangers and stepping away when you’re over-reliant.
