The age of digital media has given rise to a new social world. It
is a world in which the transmission of information from the few to
the many is steadily being supplanted by the multi-directional flow
of facts, lies, and ideas. It is a world in which hundreds of
millions of people are voluntarily depositing large amounts of
personal details in publicly accessible databases. It is a world in
which interpersonal relationships are increasingly being conducted
in the virtual sphere. Above all, this is a world that seems to be
veering off in unpredictable ways from the trends of the immediate
past. This book is a probing examination of that world, and of the
changes that it has ushered into our lives. In more than thirty
essays by a wide range of scholars, this must-have second edition
examines the impact of digital media in six areas - information,
persuasion, community, gender and sexuality, surveillance and
privacy, and cross-cultural communication - and offers an
invaluable guide for students and scholars alike. With one
exception, all essays are completely new or revised for this
volume.
