About the author

Mark Rogers spent years watching smart, motivated people lose the same battle over and over: they'd sit down to do meaningful work, and an hour later find themselves somewhere on the internet with no memory of how they got there.

That pattern became the central question of his career. Not "how do we use our phones less" — but why the usual answers don't work, and what actually does.

Drawing on behavioral psychology, neuroscience, and firsthand research into how major platforms engineer engagement, Rogers developed a framework built on one core insight: this isn't a willpower problem. It's a design problem. And design problems require structural solutions, not moral ones.

His first book, Reclaim Your Brain, applies that framework to daily life — covering everything from the neuroscience of dopamine loops to practical environment redesign, deep work protocols, and the specific challenges posed by 2026's real-time AI-generated content systems.

Rogers consults with individuals and organizations on digital productivity and attention management. He lives by the same rules he writes about, which means he's probably not checking his phone right now.

ib ruined it for me

Important but not very interesting nor complex. I find that racism is often uninteresting to read about because there isn’t really any ambiguity regarding who is wrong and who is right.

one of the worst textbooks i have ever had the displeasure of studying with unfortunately. the info was NOT chronological which is the bane of my history existence and was split up in honestly the weirdest ways possible. the civil rights sections should have been broken up into SO MANY MORE PARTS which would have made studying way more enjoyable by breaking up the info. also spelling mistakes? really? my sister was rejected from oxford but maybe they should have accepted her because she can write a hell of a lot better than the people at the university press smh
