Où est passé notre temps de cerveau disponible ? Telles des mantes religieuses, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram et autres ont lentement rongé nos capacités d'attention jusqu'à les monopoliser. Nous passons 608 heures par an sur les réseaux sociaux, soit un peu plus d'une heure et demie par jour ! Pour reprendre les propos de Sean Parker, l'ex-président deFacebook, les réseaux sociaux exploitent « une vulnérabilité de la psychologie humaine ». Non seulement nous leur sacrifions une bonne partie de nos journées, quitte à négliger certaines de nos autres activités, mais nous les laissons infléchir en profondeur les comportements que nous adoptons dans la vie réelle. Combien d'entre nous, par exemple, ne peuvent s'empêcher, lors d'un dîner au restaurant, d'immortaliser le moment sur Instagram ? Du deuil d'un proche à la venue au monde d'un bébé, aucun instant ne saurait désormais échapper au prisme des réseaux sociaux. Le cogito ergo sum n'est plus en phase avec l'époque : pour être, il ne s'agit plus de penser mais d'exister sur les réseaux sociaux, quel qu'en soit le prix. Une enquête féroce et caustique qui dépeint avec acuité les sept péchés capitaux des réseaux sociaux : hypernarcissisme, paresse, impudeur, haine, associabilité, infobésité et dépendance.

Digital development not only marked today's world in terms of technology, but also transformed our social life into different forms, and it has moved our social practices to a different media. With the development of technology, one of the many aspects of the digital representation that penetrates all areas of life is created by new technology's impacts on human health and behavior. Digital technology that penetrates all areas of life has some impacts on human health and behavior. Some of them are due to virtual reality, and some are due to overuse of new media. These include the following diseases such as cyber disease, digital addiction, binge watching, ego surfing, and many more. The book tackles the above mentioned diseases specifically and includes a wide spectrum of both literature reviews and original studies regarding the diseases of the digital era for a better comprehension of today’s world.

It has been a decade since Serial brought the narrative podcast to the center of popular culture. In that time, there has been an enormous boom in the production of podcasts that tell stories, particularly in the fields of true crime, storytelling, history, and narrative fiction. Now that the initial glow around the medium has begun to fade, it is time to reevaluate the medium's technological, political, economic, and cultural rise, in particular what types of storytelling accompanied that rise. Narrative Podcasting in an Age of Obsession is the first book to look back on this prodigious body of material and attempt to make sense of it from a structural, historical, and analytic point of view. Focusing on more than 350 podcasts and other audio works released between Serial and the COVID pandemic, the book explores why so many of these podcasts seem "obsessed with obsession," why they focus not only on informing listeners but also dramatizing the labor that goes into it, and why fiction podcasts work so hard to prove they are a brand new form, even as they revive features of radio from decades gone by. This work also examines the industry's reckoning with its own implication in systemic racism, misogyny, and other forms of discrimination. Employing innovative new critical techniques for close listening--including pitch tracking software and spectrograms--Narrative Podcasting in an Age of Obsession makes a major contribution to podcast studies and media studies more broadly.

Our society has a technology problem. Many want to disconnect from screens but can't help themselves. These days we spend more time online than ever. Some turn to self-help-measures to limit their usage, yet repeatedly fail, while parents feel particularly powerless to help their children. Unwired: Gaining Control over Addictive Technologies shows us a way out. Rather than blaming users, the book shatters the illusion that we autonomously choose how to spend our time online. It shifts the moral responsibility and accountability for solutions to corporations. Drawing lessons from the tobacco and food industries, the book demonstrates why government regulation is necessary to curb technology addiction. It describes a grassroots movement already in action across courts and legislative halls. Groundbreaking and urgent, Unwired provides a blueprint to develop this movement for change, to one that will allow us to finally gain control.

Since the advent of the Internet and increasingly mobile devices, we have witnessed dramatic changes in computer-mediated technologies and their roles in our lives. In the late 1990s, researchers began to identify problematic forms of Internet use, such as difficulty controlling the amount of time spent online. Today, people live in a perpetually digital and permanently connected world that presents many serious types of problematic Internet use besides deficient self-regulation. Thousands of studies have been published on interpersonal problems such as cyberbullying, cyberstalking, relationship conflicts about online behavior, and the increasingly problematic use of mobile devices during in-person interactions. The Changing Face of Problematic Internet Use: An Interpersonal Approach also examines future trends, including the recent development of being constantly connected to mobile devices and social networks. Research in these areas is fraught with controversy, inconsistencies, and findings that are difficult to compare and summarize. This book offers students and researchers an organized, theory-based, synthesis of research on these problems and explains how interpersonal theory and research help us better understand the problems that online behavior plays in our personal lives and social interactions.
