Bugeja investigates the impact and motives of media ecosystems that have polluted the Internet andother digital devices with marketing ploys, delivering to consumers a global mall rather than a global village. Interpersonal Divide informs readers how to use media and technology wisely so that they enhance rather than replace community.… (plus d'informations)
