Examining the profound effects of information technologies on society, this sequel explores how the Internet has transformed consciousness, communication, culture, and community since the late 1980s. Agger applies critical theory to various aspects of life, including work, family dynamics, education, and health, while assessing the potential for democratic change in this fast-paced environment. Aimed at a broader audience, it goes beyond theoretical frameworks to engage sociologists and cultural scholars alike, making it a relevant and insightful read.
