What if the harms of living an increasingly digital life go beyond undercutting our attention spans or blunting our social skills? What if it cuts deeper, to the core of who we are and who we know ourselves to be?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Patricia Martin, author, researcher, and host of the Jung in the World<\/em> podcast, explores the challenges that tech and the internet impose on the human psyche. In Will the Future Like You? Reflections on the Age of Hyper-Reinvention<\/em>, she argues that 24\/7 online connectivity reshapes not only our sense of self, but erodes our very ability to form our identities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Weaving together memoir, depth psychology, cultural criticism, and reportage, Martin guides readers through the hidden processes that form identity \u2014 and reveals how digital life is quietly dismantling them. At once a rigorous inquiry and a deeply human one,\u00a0Will the Future Like You?<\/em>\u00a0asks what it means to hold onto a coherent self in an era designed to keep us endlessly reinventing. Releases March 5, 2026; Karnac Books UK. Available for pre-order on\u00a0Amazon<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
