Recenzje

"A refreshing lack of hysteria about the impact the internet has had on our sex lives."The Guardian"The New Laws of Love is an insightful deep dive into the world of digitally mediated dating. Bergström eloquently and convincingly navigates a nuanced path between moral decline theses on the one side and uncritical celebrations of online dating on the other, to reach evidence-based conclusions and analyses."Brady Robards, Monash University
