"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, isa sense of restorative balance and self-

awareness." -- 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
