Identity in the Age of the Internet

Life on the Screen explores how computers and the Internet are influencing people's identities, relationships, and psychological lives.
Turkle examines trends in computer design, artificial intelligence, and virtual environments, highlighting a dramatic shift in our notions of self, other, machine, and world.
The book delves into text-based virtual environments like MUDs and MOOs, where users adopt online personas, and discusses how these environments provide a space for people to explore different aspects of themselves.
It also analyzes the impact of technology on our evolving ideas about minds, bodies, and machines, and how the computer brings postmodernism down to earth.
