A brave, clear-eyed look at what's breaking us--and a warm, intelligent answer we urgently need. It's 3 am and your brain won't shut up. Your to-do list multiplies. Your inbox feels sentient. AI is rewriting your job description while you doomscroll and somehow you're supposed to 'optimise' your way to happiness as everything around you glitches. Here's the truth: you're not broken. Your brain just wasn't built for this. With algorithms hijacking your attention and a culture that mistakes exhaustion for achievement, staying human can feel impossible.

Dara Simkin (Australia's leading voice in play at work) and Tane Hunter (systems scientist and world-class science communicator) reveal the five-layer upgrade your mind has been craving--a practical system for staying deeply human in a world ruled by technology. Smart, soulful and thoughtfully rebellious, this isn't another wellness fad or productivity hack. It's neuroscience and real talk--a research-backed guide to staying gloriously, messily, authentically human while the world races towards artificial efficiency. Full Stack Human is the reset for anyone who refuses to sacrifice their humanity for success. The essential field guide every leader needs to make innovation joyful, human and sustainable again. --BRENDAN BOYLE, founder of IDEO Play Lab and Stanford Design Professor Hits your brain and your heart at the same time. --DAVID PEARL, author of Will There Be Donuts and Story for Leaders Two playful, whip-smart thinkers willing to ask some of the hairiest questions, like what are we really doing here? And what happens next? --HONOR EASTLY, Australian Mental Health Prize-winning artist.
