Informazioni editoriali
La tecnologia è diventata artefice delle nostre intimità. Online, siamo cullati dall'illusione della compagnia, dei nostri mille amici su Twitter o Facebook, confondendo tweet e post con la reale socialità. Ma questa connessione continua, non fa che portarci alla solitudine. Sherry Turkle, Professoressa presso la MIT, But this relentless connection leads to a deep solitude. MIT professor Sherry Turkle argues that as technology ramps up, our emotional lives ramp down. Based on hundreds of interviews and with a new introduction taking us to the present day, Alone Together describes changing, unsettling relationships between friends, lovers, and families.
