This one explains how they actually work \u2014 because understanding the system matters more than fearing it.<\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Alessandra Di Lorenzo has spent two decades inside the digital advertising industry &mdash; from Yahoo and eBay to Vodafone and former CEO of lastminute.com&#8217;s Media Company &mdash; helping build the systems that now power the internet. So when ads for menopause treatments began targeting her, long before they were relevant, she wasn&rsquo;t surprised. But she was irritated &mdash; and quietly alarmed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&ldquo;I wasn&rsquo;t perimenopausal &mdash; just at the age for it &mdash; and being targeted by menopause ads made me start worrying about something that wasn&rsquo;t even true for me yet. That&rsquo;s when I decided it was time to show people how this system works&mdash; and how it can mess with your mind if you don&rsquo;t know how to manage it.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Her new book, <strong>ADJUST: How Ads Shape What We Think and Do<\/strong>, is a clear, accessible guide to the digital ad economy &mdash; a system that now powers everything from the apps we use to the content we consume, the choices we make, and even how we feel about ourselves.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Not Another Big Tech Takedown<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Where other books focus on surveillance, outrage, or AI panic, ADJUST takes a different path: it explains the mechanics and the psychology behind the system &mdash; so readers can understand it, spot it, and live with it on their own terms.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">From how your data is collected and traded, to how targeting decisions are made in milliseconds, to the subtle ways ads shape identity, ADJUST makes the invisible visible &mdash; in a tone that&rsquo;s human, not hysterical.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>The Book Covers:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>How ad platforms trade your attention and pro\ufb01le in real time<\/li>\n<li>Why ads feel like they&rsquo;re listening &mdash; and what&rsquo;s actually happening<\/li>\n<li>The psychological playbook behind persuasion<\/li>\n<li>How ads in\ufb02uence identity, insecurity, and desire<\/li>\n<li>What you can do to &ldquo;ad-proof&rdquo; your life<\/li>\n<li>Where the industry is heading &mdash; with AI, retail media, and streaming at the center<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><br \/>About the Author<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Alessandra Di Lorenzo is a leading voice in digital advertising, with senior roles across Yahoo, eBay, Vodafone, and lastminute.com.
