CHAPTER 1 - HOW THE INTERNET WORKS
We will go over the technical side of the Internet. We will focus on things you are using on a daily basis like WiFi, browsers, Websites, and social apps. We will also bring some light to what cookies, servers, clients, requests, responses, machine learning and other everyday technologies really are.
CHAPTER 2: HOW TO MANAGE YOUR DIGITAL FOOTPRINT
The whole point of this chapter is to explore some practical ways to use the Web more safely. You will learn some Internet browsing tips that you will be able to apply on both your desktop and phone (whether iOS or Android) as well as some security concepts to help you make a conscious use of the Internet.
Part 2
CHAPTER 1: HOW DOES YOUR BRAIN WORK
After figuring out the technical side of the Internet, it's vital to connect this knowledge with the brain. In order to do this, we also have to understand some key aspects of our brain. What are the components of our metabolism? What can make us react in a certain way? How does this process happen?
CHAPTER 2: HOW TO CHANGE YOUR BEHAVIOURS
Finally, this book will take you through what can you do everyday to adapt your behaviour and take control of your life once you have decided how you want to live it. You will observe and learn from your own behaviours and understand their impact on the world. Technology has changed us. We need to choose what what we want to accept and what we do not.
