Rezensionen

"This remarkably sane and balanced book gives us the most rational social analysis of screen technology that I've ever read. ... A cool, detached observation augments many of the insights and information to be found in Screen Society. All screen-enthusiasts and screen-detractors would gain greater understanding and clarity, about their activities, by reading this remarkable book. I can't recommend Screen Society highly enough." (Alan Price, Magonia review of books, pelicanist.blogspot.com, August, 2018)
