Consider Facebookit’s human contact, only easier to engage with and easier to avoid. Developing technology promises closeness. Sometimes it delivers, but much of our modern life leaves us less connected with people and more connected to simulations of them. In Alone Together , MIT technology and society professor Sherry Turkle explores the power of our new tools and toys to dramatically alter our social lives. It’s a nuanced exploration of what we are looking forand sacrificingin a world of electronic companions and social networking tools, and an argument that, despite the hand-waving of today’s self-described prophets of the future, it will be the next generation who will chart the path between isolation and connectivity.

##that's why i dislike sociology...tons of redundant self-justifications...it's undeniable that these problems exist but the way sociologists address them only makes them all the more complicated and confusing...

評分##如果作為一本學術書籍它不夠嚴謹如果當做評論性文章閱讀就不錯

評分##we text instead of calling because texting allows us to edit and it does not require immediate response. Meanwhile by guessing your emotions through texts, you successfully hide your true feelings and even identities. 全本書最有意義的一點。書裏的故事不太有意思，文字也不好看。

評分##總體而言比較雜誌體，側重在小孩和青少年如何被科技影響。前七章一直在說小孩和機器人，我都懷疑作者是不是拿機器人公司贊助費瞭啊。
評分##社會學教授說要讀完。。。
評分##昨晚正好看瞭機械姬。。。感覺就是psychopath的變種啊，書主要觀點還是人找機器人做伴侶是因為they'd rather live disappointed than to be disappointed. 沒挑戰那多沒意思嘛
