Paradox of progress

Paradox of Progress is a book written and designed by Sam Niedbalski. The content and concept of the book explore the complex relationship between technology and human nature. The design is deeply informed by the book’s central themes, which include attention, connection, and speed—concepts that are woven throughout both the writing and visual presentation.

The book is produced as a hardcover with French stitching, emphasizing both durability and craftsmanship. It is fully translated into Spanish, with both language versions treated with equal hierarchy and importance in the overall design.
