Freedom to Think is a groundbreaking book that has been recognized as one of the best books of 2022 by prestigious publications such as the Financial Times and the Telegraph. It has also been shortlisted for the prestigious RSL Christopher Bland Prize 2023 and longlisted for the Moore Prize for Human Rights Writing. The book is a compelling, powerful, and necessary read that explores the ongoing struggle for mental freedom in the digital age.
Written by human rights lawyer Susie Alegre, Freedom to Think is a fascinating and thought-provoking exploration of the history and fragility of our most important human right: freedom of thought. The book connects the dots from historical figures such as Galileo to contemporary technologies such as Alexa, highlighting how the powerful have always sought to influence how we think and what we buy.
Through a series of shocking case studies across politics, criminal justice, and everyday life, Alegre demonstrates how our mental freedom is under threat like never before. She argues that our human rights must be recast for the digital age to safeguard our future and ensure that we are not subjected to the control and manipulation of powerful tech companies.
Freedom to Think is a bold and radical book that challenges readers to think critically about the implications of the digital age on our mental health and freedom. It is a must-read for anyone who cares about the future of humanity and the importance of protecting our most fundamental rights.
