George Eastman, now in his mid-nineties, has witnessed an analog world transform into a digital world and has developed a lifelong interest in human freedom. Since the 1960s and 1970s, George Eastman has been investigating the effects of technology on our psychology, education, and behavior. George holds a Doctor of Education (1963) from Harvard, where he studied philosophy, linguistics, and social relations; and a PhD in Clinical Psychology (1974) from New York University, where he focused on game and decision-making theories in the context of human freedom and psychotherapy.

Throughout his long and multifaceted career, George has conducted original research and published across disciplines in educational and philosophical journals, taught thousands of students across multiple universities, founded the Institute of Media Research, and supported over 7,500 clinical patients. This lifelong interest in our humanness and human freedom is the foundation of The Digital Revolution.
