Description

Screens have been with us since the eighteenth century, but it wasn't until the twentieth century that we became accustomed to staring at them. However, the combination of screens and the internet has brought about a revolution in society, transforming our lives in profound ways. This book explores how society has changed as a result of our increasing use of screen devices, such as smartphones, tablets, and computers. The authors conducted an original research project involving nearly 2000 participants, who shared their thoughts and opinions on various issues related to screen use, including addiction, trolling, gaming, and gambling. The book challenges conventional wisdom on these topics, offering a fresh perspective on the impact of screens on our daily lives.
