Aaronson Auditorium at Central Library Fourth Street and Denver Avenue The Shallows: What the Internet is Doing to Our Brains by Nicholas Carr Is the Internet's wellspring of information making us smarter? Or is it diminishing our ability to read and think deeply, contemplatively and creatively? Through studies in neurological science, Nicholas Carr shows changes in the way the brain processes information.
