Technology & Society: Social Networks, Power, and Inequality

Series: Themes in Canadian Sociology

The only Canadian text to examine the intersection of technology and society through theories and real-world examples.

This fully updated third edition examines the places where technology and society intersect, connecting the reality of our technological age to issues of social networks, communication, identity, power, and inequality. The result is a comprehensive overview of the technological tools we use, where they come from, and how they are changing our perceptions of ourselves and the relationships we form.
