Recenzje

'This ground-breaking book lays bare a new space for reflection and critique in our digital culture. By addressing how social media and networking technologies embody and influence moral frameworks and experiences, Lisa S. Nelson takes the current discussion on digital technologies beyond issues of privacy and control. Social Media and Morality is a much needed expansion and enrichment of the ethical discussion in our digital society.' Peter-Paul Verbeek, University of Twente
