Every chapter is full of great insights and great writing." -MITCHEL RESNICK, LEGO Papért Professor of Learning Research and head of the Lifelong Kindergarten group at the MIT Media Laboratory "Based on an ambitious research program, and written in a clear and beguiling style, this book will captivate both scholar and generál reader and it will be a landmark in the study of the impact of social média."-JILL KER CONWAY, President Emerita, Smith College, and author of The Road from Coorain "Alone Together is a deep yet accessible, bold yet gentle, frightening yet reassuring account of how people continue to find one another in an increasingly mediated landscape. If the net and humanity could have a couples therapist, it would be Sherry Turkle." -DOUGLAS RUSHKOFF, author of Program or Be Programmed Vissza
