The new virtual era is already here. We use the internet every day,
to retrieve information, to purchase merchandise, and to connect
with others. But do we really understand the psychology of the
internet and how it affects our lives?In this book, Dr Haim
Weinberg looks at cyberspace from a group analytic perspective,
conceptualizing internet forums as large groups with the illusion
of being small groups, and using his expertise as a group therapist
to shed new light on internet connections. He explores issues of
attachment, relationships, inter-subjectivity, and neuroscience,
and shows their relevance to the virtual world. He discusses the
question of intimacy and develops a new concept of E-intimacy that
better suits internet bonding. He also examines the multicultural
issues found in internet forums, and the leadership qualities
needed to manage these issues. Finally, he claims that there is a
link which connects us through the world wide web: the internet
unconscious.
