Whatever our emotional response to this departed realm, we are faced with the fact that nearly every aspect of modern life now takes place in filtered, isolated corners of cyberspace—a space that has slowly subsumed our physical habitats, replacing or transforming the office, our local library, a favourite bar, the movie theatre, and the coffee shop where people met one another's gaze from across the room. Even as we've gained the ability to gather without leaving our house, many of the fundamentally human experiences that have sustained us have disappeared.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn one hundred glimpses of that pre-Internet world, Pamela Paul, editor of The New York Times Book Review, presents a captivating record, enlivened with illustrations, of the world before cyberspace—from voicemails to blind dates to punctuation to civility. There are the small losses: postcards, the blessings of an adolescence largely spared of documentation, the Rolodex, and the genuine surprises at high school reunions. But there are larger repercussions, too—weaker memories, the inability to entertain oneself, and the utter demolition of privacy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e100 Things We've Lost to the Internet\u003c\/em\u003e is at once an evocative swan song for a disappearing era and, perhaps, a guide to reclaiming just a little bit more of the world IRL.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House NZ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46626450342124,"sku":"9780593136775","price":65.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/4357543482399.jpg?v=1751849092"},{"product_id":"how-to-raise-a-reader-by-maria-russo-9781523505302","title":"How to Raise a Reader","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"book-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn indispensable guide to welcoming children from babies to teens to a lifelong love of reading, written by Pamela Paul and Maria Russo, editors of \u003cem\u003eThe New York Times Book Review\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDo you remember your first visit to where the wild things are?
