Adicción a la Pantalla: Por Qué no Puedes Colgar ese Teléfono
por Sor Marysia Weber, RSM
En este libro, Adicción a la Pantalla: Por Qué no Puede Colgar ese Teléfono, Sor Marysia ha reunido un magnífico tratado contra la amenaza que se avecina y que intenta sobrepasar nuestras habilidades mentales de imaginar, crear, contemplar y de relacionarnos con nuestros hermanos y hermanas en Cristo. Al mismo tiempo, analiza la investigación fisiológica y psicológica actual en torno a la adicción a la pantalla y combina las verdades teológicas y filosóficas atemporales de la fe católica en una lectura que es fácil de entender.

TESTIMONIOS
“Algunos de nosotros solíamos ser soñadores despiertos, lo cual era bastante inofensivo a menos que perdiéramos el contacto con la realidad. Hoy en día, la mayoría de nosotros nos hemos convertido en YouTubers, también bastante inofensivos hasta que pierdes el contacto con las personas que te rodean. Lo que puede convertirse en una adicción grave, una adicción a las pantallas. Eso es lo que Sor Marysia Weber escribe en este excelente libro. Siendo una médica psiquiatra calificada, ella sabe de lo que está hablando. El libro no solo es extremadamente informativo, sino también muy práctico al brindarnos herramientas poderosas para ayudarnos, a nuestros hijos, a nuestros adolescentes y a nuestros adultos jóvenes. Es una mina de oro.” – Dr. Gerard M. Verschuuren, Genetista
“”Sor Marysia Weber, R.S.M., nos ha dado en su libro Adicción a la Pantalla: Por Qué no Puedes Colgar ese Teléfono una explicación útil de por qué nos estamos involucrando cada vez más, con nuestros dispositivos, en las redes sociales. Nos sugiere, asimismo, de soluciones prácticas sobre cómo poner fin a ese comportamiento adictivo para mantener salud personal y bienestar social”. – Dr. Sebastian Mahfood, OP
