The husband-wife team of Rosen and Weil use the leverage of 15 years' worth of research to show us how technology stresses us out and what can be done to rectify the situation. Problems addressed include the myth of technological ease, the speed expected of workers in a technological society, the dangers of communicating solely by e-mail, corporate technostress, the question of boundaries in a virtual world, and control issues in small businesses and home offices. Numerous tips to avoid technostress are given throughout the text, along with quizzes and checklists to spot trouble in your life or the life of someone you know.
