Brain Hijack: How Phones Killed Student Focus Are our students failing… or are they being hacked? In Brain Hijack: How Phones Killed Student Focus, Jihad Saffouri peels back the glossy surface of our screen-obsessed society to reveal an uncomfortable truth: today's students are not just distracted—they are digitally dismantled. With storytelling as sharp as a notification ping and research that punches through the noise, this book explores how mobile devices, once hailed as revolutionary tools for education, have quietly eroded the mental stamina, creativity, and attention span of an entire generation. Through a blend of humor, insight, and startling honesty, Saffouri dives into the science of attention, the dopamine loops engineered by app developers, and the illusion of multitasking that schools and parents have bought into. He doesn't just point fingers—he tells stories. Of teachers battling digital fatigue in the classroom. Of students caught in a feedback loop of comparison and instant gratification. And of a society that equates "online" with "engaged" while forgetting what deep thinking really feels like. Perfect for educators, parents, tech skeptics, and anyone who's ever found themselves scrolling instead of studying, Brain Hijack offers both a wake-up call and a way forward. Saffouri's voice is compassionate but unflinching—he challenges us to rethink what it means to learn in the age of distraction and to imagine a classroom where attention is protected like treasure. This is not another "get off my lawn" rant against smartphones. This is a battle cry for reclaiming the most precious resource we have: focus. ???? Attention isn't dead—it's under attack. Brain Hijack shows you how to fight back.
