Review "She struck a hopeful nerve of possibility that I hadn’t felt in a long time."â€"Jia Tolentino, The New Yorker"A complex, smart and ambitious book that at first reads like a self-help manual, then blossoms into a wide-ranging political manifesto."â€"Jonah Engel Bromwich, The New York Times Book Review"How to Do Nothing is genuinely instructive, elaborating a practical philosophy to help us slow down and temporarily sidestep the forces aligned against both our mental health and long-term human survival. You can knock the hustle â€" and you should."â€"Akiva Gottlieb, Los Angeles Times"Approachable and incisive. . . . The book is clearly the work of a socially conscious artist and writer who considers careful attention to the rich variety of the world an antidote to the addictive products and platforms that technology provides. . . . [Odell] sails with capable ease between the Scylla and Charybdis of subjectivity and arid theory with the relatable humanity of her vision."â€"Nicholas Cannariato, The Washington Post"The sentiment behind How to Do Nothing is one of defiance.”â€"Casey Schwartz, The New York Times"An erudite and thoughtful narrative about the importance of interiority and taking time to pay close attention to the spaces around us."â€"Annie Vainshtein, San Francisco Chronicle"How to Do Nothing mimics the experience of walking with a perceptive and sensitive friend, the kind of person who makes you feel, in your bones, that it’s a miraculous gift to be alive."â€"Katie Bloom, The Seattle Times"Odell’s great strength as a writer is her ability to convey art’s unique power without overestimating or misstating its social impact. . . . Ultimately, what sets her book apart from self-help is not a less quixotic set of demands but a more life-affirming endgame."â€"Megan Marz, The Baffler"Thoughtful, compelling, and practical."â€"Clay Skipper, GQ"Jenny Odell’s brilliant How to Do Nothing is the book we all need to read now. With wonderful precision, passion, and artfulness, Odell finds the language to meet this cultural moment. She has written a joyful manifesto about resistance that is also an eccentric and practical handbook on how to reclaim your colonized and monetized attention."â€"Dana Spiotta, author of Innocents and Others“Self-help for the collectively minded, How to Do Nothing is as thoughtful and morally serious as it is fun to read. This book will change how you see the world.”â€"Malcolm Harris, author of Kids These Days  “Your chaotic, fraught internal weather isn't an accident, it's a business-model, and while 'thoughtful resistance' isn't 'productive,' Odell proves that it is utterly necessary.”â€"Cory Doctorow, author of Radicalized and Walkaway“In a media and tech ecosystem simultaneously obsessed with "digital detox" and building personal brands, How to Do Nothing is a breath of fresh air grounding readers in the complex, interdependent actual ecosystems of the physical world. Jenny Odell writes with remarkable clarity and compassion. Each chapter reads like going on a fascinating walk through a park in conversation with an old friend (who happens to also be able to tell you about every single bird in the park, which is awesome). It's a book I already know I'll be returning to and referencing for a long time.”â€"Ingrid Burrington, author of Networks of New York      “In How to do Nothing Jenny Odell breaks through the invisible yoke that binds 21st century first-worlders to our app-driven devices. With a thoughtful look at the attention economy, Odell’s book is a self-help guide for re-learning how to look at the world. The book braids threads of ancient philosophy together with contemporary visual and technological culture, and weaves an original route to re-wilding the mind. Wide-ranging and erudite, this book is also entertaining, and brings the reader along with enthusiasm to Odell's philosophy of “manifest dismantling.” â€"Megan Prelinger, author of Inside the Machine: Art and Invention in the Electronic Age "Odell introduces the idea that within our world there are endless other worlds; many of the alternatives sound much better. We need only pay attention."â€"Vice's Broadly Read more About the Author Jenny Odell is an artist and writer who teaches at Stanford, has been an artist-in-residence at places like the San Francisco dump, Facebook, the Internet Archive, and the San Francisco Planning Department, and has exhibited her art all over the world.

You may appreciate browsing this book while spent your free time. Theexpression in this word renders the reader seem to see and read this book again and still. It seems like some of the negative reviews have an agenda to push, especially the one that only quotes from the first and last paragraphs of the book. I would guess that person did not even read the book. I enjoyed the thoughts from the author. It made me think of things differently. I appreciated the argument about valuing things that aren’t valued in money or measured in the economy. It argues that we need time to process our thoughts and not just thoughtlessly react to social media posts. It argues we need the ability to direct our conversations differently to different audiences rather than the one size fits all post of Facebook. It argues to get to know your neighborhood and local place. If you are sick of the continued outrage machines we have created in our national discussions, you may wish to read this. It is true the author is viewing life from inside a San Francisco cultural bubble but I still found resonance with main points while living in the Midwest U.S. Jenny Odell is not simply smart, she is VERY smart. To be THAT smart, you should be an American professor in the field of Arts and Humanities in the year 2019. Professors in these fields have to produce INNOVATIVE SCHOLARSHIP (important words in academia) in the forms of books and articles, even if such innovation often means reinventing the wheel (tenure committees will be happy anyway). The reason for this is quite noble: the "old" wheel was invented by patriarchal oppressors, and oppression must be defeated through leftist college activism. Perhaps it would be fair to presume that Jenny is also oppressed; as we learn from the book, Jenny - a professor at Stanford, - suffers from the awful American reality:"In early 2017, not long after Trump's inauguration [...] I was still reeling from the election and, like many other artists I knew, found it difficult to continue making anything at all."I feel for Jenny, I do. You can hardly find a worse sentence to open a book (the chapter is called "A Case for Nothing," and the entire book is actually JUST THAT - a case for NOTHING, garnished with quotations from almost anything that Jenny has ever read and no original ideas whatsoever). By the way, some of the best artists have created their masterworks IN SPITE OF the political conditions, in which they lived. Shostakovich and Solzhenitzyn lived under Stalin, after all.Now, before we go on, sit in zazen and chant OM. Focus. Breathe. Feel the love...Let's continue with few more words of inspiration from Jenny's chef-d'oeuvre:"Practices of attention and curiosity are inherently open-ended, oriented toward something outside of ourselves. Through attention and curiosity, we can suspend our tendency toward INSTRUMENTAL UNDERSTANDING-seeing things or people one-dimensionally as the product of their functions..."Wow! One cannot just make this up, it is an insight that must come from true wisdom, and from years of scholarly research. I am not quite sure Immanuel Kant, Nietzsche or Jung (or Marx!) would agree with Jenny, but whatever, it matters not! The important thing is to feel good, who cares about philosophical problems related to human consciousness. If you are a MODERN professor, you should not be stuck in all this mud. You must care about the souls of your students, about their feelings and gender expressions; only in such a way you can help them be THEMSELVES! If you read the book, you will be yourself as well! (What else can you be?)Jenny reaches the pinnacle of spiritual depth, masterfully distilled in the glorious cadence at the end of this tenure-worthy publication:"Standing perpendicular to the earth, not pitching forward, not falling back, I asked how I could possibly express my gratitude for the unlikely spectacle of the PELICANS. The answer was nothing. Just watch."Namaste! True inspiration from within. Absolutely life changing, if you are somewhere between middle and high school...No more spoilers. Buy the book, read it and then ask yourself: why college education in the US is so expensive? Why???
