Why have we lost our ability to focus? What are the causes? And, most importantly, how do we get it back?

His TED talks have been viewed over 80 million times, and his work has been praised by a broad range of people, from Oprah to Noam Chomsky to Joe Rogan, Elton John, Hillary Clinton and Steven Bartlett.
