The first section deals with how we perceive and interact with robots and how this may develop in the future. Hmmm. Poorly written and not that well-researched -- and my eyes glazed over so much during the long first half about robots I didn't retain much about it -- but the second half, which discusses avatars, Second Life, Skype, texting, Facebook, WoW, and so on, was a lot better, and helped me articulate some of the misgivings I've been having recently about the time I spend on the internet. Then I gave it to my husband to read.
It turned out to be very enlightening. Constructively critiquing each other’s work is something I think we are still working on in social media.
Here are a few quotes that stood out to me: What a good book this is! It also analyzes reviews to verify trustworthiness.

However, given her unique background as a trained psychologist and professor at MIT, Turkle brings a very unique perspective into discussions about technology.
Consider the difference between having friends and being "friended" and for too many it is the difference between getting what you want and getting what we think we want.
The second half of the book pertains to every mode of on-line communication: gaming, chat rooms, IM, social. Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2017. After reading the first two chapters, I was so mad and upset that I put the book down for a few weeks before trying to finish it. I felt she was able to point out a fairly evident phenomenon such as people texting more and calling less but failed to deeply analyse it beyond showing the angst and frustrations it brought teenagers.
