What do others say about this book?

Many people have different reviews and sayings of the book "Everything Bad is Good for You" by Steven Johnson. For example, David Fentresss posted on June 28, 2005 that he thought "Steven Johnson wrote a great deal highlighting the depth and intricacy of many computer games. he also thought that Johnson presented a very convincing case that a significant part of pop culture is in fact making people smarter. Another review by Farhad Manjoo  says that in the book "Johnson protests too much, setting up what looks like straw men defenders of old media so that he can expand on the greatness of the new." He also was surprised of how Johnson illustrates about how video games and television affect your brain.
