En savoir plus sur le livre

Exploring the metaphor of friendship, the book examines the evolution of informal social ties in contemporary society. It highlights the transition from stable connections found in family, neighborhood, and community to the more fluid and temporary relationships fostered by computer-mediated communication. Through this lens, the author sheds light on the implications of these changes for social interactions and personal connections in the modern world.
