This engaging text is grounded in both classic and contemporary research, providing a balanced view of how the internet influences human behavior.

In this second edition, Wallace expands the discussion by exploring new trends in internet technology, from online dating to online aggression, and from group dynamics to the psychological impacts of online gaming. Key topics include gender and sexuality, privacy and surveillance, and the addictive properties of the internet. The book also offers insight into the future of the internet, discussing strategies for addressing its potential negative impacts while maximizing its benefits.
This book is perfect for readers interested in understanding the psychological complexities of cyberspace, making it an essential resource for students, educators, and researchers in psychology, media studies, and sociology.
