Scientists and philosophers interested in the social phenomenon of internet, sure.
And many of curious general readers interested in the social and psychological effects and consequences has read and study one kind of threnody book by Standford University psychiatrist Elias Aboujaoude.
Virtually You: The Dangerous Powers of the E-Personality was a New York Time´s editor's choice.
Anyways, there is no any new view since after the web´ss big year 1998. We were in a time in which virtual means of communication, mainly the internet, were very important, even essential for all of us.
The existence of technical devices that enable us to talk, write, learn, interact and in general communicate to each other very easily has produced a change in the way that.
But now we see and understand personal relationships, specially in children who have grown wholly in this kyper context of internet, facebook, twitter, myspace, blackberries, etc. and know of almost no other social reality. but we saw that - where Aboujaoude was on during last decade?
According to Aboujaoude this phenomenon deserves close attention and scholarly study, specially from the point of view of the effects that such social phenomenon produces in the personality, psychology and behaviour of the people who are part of it.
He has focused - through the lens of black - his studies and investigations on disoders like obsessive compulsive disorder and behavioral addictions, including the addictions related to internet use.
I got all of mine from here and there, what I needed, internet is part of this process.
