Book Launch: August Lamm presents You Don't Need a Smartphone: A Practical Guide to Downgrading Your Phone and Upgrading Your Life

In conversation with Ann Manov

Anti-tech activist August Lamm launches a revelatory manifesto, You Don't Need a Smartphone, giving you the courage and confidence to ditch your smartphone once and for all. Filled with moving stories and practical suggestions, You Don’t Need a Smartphone proves that living without a computer in your pocket is not only possible but ideal. Offering guidance on selecting a new phone, navigating without GPS, meeting people offline, and overcoming obstacles like digital tickets and dual-factor authentication, You Don’t Need a Smartphone is as urgent and radical as its title, and a new blueprint for a fulfilling life in the Information Age. Lamm reads from and discusses the book with New York journalist Ann Manov, before an audience Q&A and signing.
