BEING VIRTUAL
Beschreibung:
In Being Virtual, Davey Winder looks at how an increasing number of us are living part-real, part-virtual lives, and how it affects who we are. He looks at the opportunities and dangers that a virtual identity offers us, how we juggle our real and online lives, and what happens when one spills over into the other... In this book he uses his own personal experiences to bring the issues to life, and backs them up with the real-life stories of others and opinion from the experts. Along the way, he looks at some fascinating questions such as:
Are you a virtual liar?
What happens when our virtual and real worlds colide?
What real world rights do you have as a virtual citizen?
Is it really possible to fall in love with someone you have never met?
Is it possible to have any secrets in such a connected world?
Discover. Question. Provoke.
