Rohlinger, Deana A.,

New media and society / Deana A. Rohlinger. - 240 pages

Includes bibliographical references and index.

We use cell phones, computers, and tablets to access the Internet, read the news, watch television, chat with our friends, make our appointments, and post on social networking sites. New media provide the backdrop for most of our encounters. We swim in a technological world yet we rarely think about how new media potentially change the ways in which we interact with one another or shape how we live our lives. In this book, Deana Rohlinger provides a sociological approach to understanding how new media shape our interactions, our experiences, and our institutions.
