Summary

A short, fascinating introduction to the concept of attention, on what we are encouraged and educated to find interesting, and what we find ourselves being interested in despite ourselves. There is our official curiosity and our unofficial curiosity (and psychoanalysis is a story about the relationship between the two)... Based on three connected talks on the subject of attention, this pocket-sized book is a quirky and memorable introduction to idea of our attention, how we spend it, and what it might tell us about ourselves
