Information resonance on the book "Atomic Habits" by James Clear: Bibliometric Analysis (2018–2023)

The purpose of this students research paper is to detect, present and generalize all forms of information resonance of the book „Atomic Habits: Tiny changes, remarkable results: an easy & proven way to build good habits & break bad ones” by James Clear on this basis to check up the hypothesis that the book was realized as a media. The research objectives include searching and presenting various forms of readers' feedback about the book, summarizing and visualizing data using diagrams, recapitulating the results by quantitative generalization and formulating an answer to the question whether the book has been implemented as a communication medium. The methodology includes information retrieval, information monitoring and bibliometric analysis. The summary of the results follows the algorithm for information resonance of the book in 8 phases, developed by M. Tsvetkova. Information monitoring covers the period from 2018 to 2023. The conclusions are likely to be useful for theoretical discussions about the difference between buying a book and reading a book.
