The first half of this memoir is well written and highly interesting. Sherry Turkle evokes a bygone era of Jewish life in New York and of being a bright, intellectual female at a time when that was regarded as unusual. But the second half is far less interesting--I never could get a handle on her French philosophy thesis, she spent a great deal of time grinding axes against her MIT colleagues, and the text was poorly edited. I think there is an entire category of books that were rushed out during the pandemic without being carefully proofed and edited. Unfortunately, this book falls in that category. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

"MIT psychologist and bestselling author of RECLAIMING CONVERSATION and ALONE TOGETHER, Sherry Turkle's intimate memoir of love and work In this vivid and poignant narrative, Sherry Turkle ties together her coming-of-age story and her groundbreaking research on technology, empathy, and ethics. Growing up in post-war Brooklyn in a house filled with mysteries, Turkle searched for clues. She mastered the codes that governed her secretive mother's world. She learned never to ask about her absent scientist father. And never to use his name, her name. Empathy was her strategy for survival. Turkle's intellect and curiosity propelled her to the thresholds of defining cultural moments that became life-lessons: she practiced friendship at Harvard/Radcliffe at the cusp of co-education during the antiwar movement, mourned the loss of her mother in Paris as students returned from the 1968 barricades, and faced the extent of her ambition while fighting for her place in the academy as a woman at MIT. There, Turkle found turbulent love and chronicled the wonders of the new computer culture, even as she warned of its threat to our most essential human connections. THE EMPATHY DIARIES captures all this in rich detail--and offers a masterclass in finding meaning through life's work."-- Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
