Irresistible

This is a worthwhile overview of research and case studies in how digital technology is engineered to be addictive and habit forming. As expected for a pop psychology–type book, it isn't critical of capitalism at all. Probably a good basic read for new parents trying to get a handle on how to socialize children around tech.
