Everything Bad is Good For You

Written by Steven Johnson
Reviewed by Brad Quinn

If you're a parent or over 30 you must read this book; our future leaders are getting a kick start we might not have imagined.  Johnson uses disciplined research and draws on fields as diverse as neuroscience, economics and media theory to argue that the pop culture we soak in ever day is actually making the human mind sharper.  So plop the kids in front of the TV or video games (guilt free) and read this book.
