Summary

"Non si può tenere a mente tutto". Con questa frase spesso ci giustifichiamo di distrazioni che continuamente sperimentiamo nella nostra quotidianità e che talvolta possono avere conseguenze tragiche sulla vita delle persone. Ma la distrazione svolge anche un'importante funzione positiva quando, ad esempio, ci allontana da emozioni negative. E soprattutto non è, come erroneamente saremmo portati a credere, l'opposto dell'attenzione.

L'autrice del volume, servendosi anche di interessanti incursioni nella letteratura e nella filosofia, ci offre un quadro completo di questo complesso meccanismo dell'intelletto umano: cosa è e come funziona, come riuscire a controllarla, quali sono i suoi costi e i suoi benefici, infine qual è la sua relazione con altri fondamentali processi mentali come le emozioni e la memoria.
