Franklin Foer

Giornalista e scrittore statunitense, è nato nel 1974 ed è fratello dello scrittore Jonathan Safran Foer e del giornalista e scrittore Joshua Foer. È uno dei redattori di punta della prestigiosa rivista di cultura, scienza e attualità The Atlantic. In passato è stato editor di The New Republic (2006-2016) e collaboratore delle riviste New York e Slate. È autore di diversi libri, tra i quali Come il calcio spiega il mondo: uscito in Italia nel 2007 da Baldini & Castoldi Dalai, è un’appassionata analisi di questo sport nell’era della sua (problematica) globalizzazione e un pretesto per far luce, da un inedito punto di vista, sulle nuove oligarchie del mondo contemporaneo. Nel 2017 ha pubblicato il saggio World Without Mind. The Existential Threat of Big Tech, inserito fra i migliori dell’anno dal New York Times e dal Los Angeles Times. Tradotto in Italia da Longanesi nel 2018 col titolo I nuovi poteri forti. Come Google Apple Facebook e Amazon pensano per noi (traduzione di Matteo Camporesi), vince il Premio Terzani 2019.
