Weapons of Mass Distraction with Pico Iyer

(Visit: http://www.uctv.tv/) Recent technology has made our lives much brighter, longer, fuller and healthier than ever before; but how can we ensure that we're not drowning in information and still have offline lives as well? In an interview with UC San Diego's Peter Gourevitch, essayist and novelist Pico Iyer draws upon 40 years of travel across five continents to explore how to make the most of new opportunities, without being depleted -- or devoured -- by them. This program is presented by the Helen Edison Lecture Series at UC San Diego. Series: "Helen Edison Lecture Series" [7/2014] [Public Affairs] [Humanities] [Show ID: 27682]
