New Book announcement


German A. Duarte – Justin Michael Battin (Eds.) /Reading “Black Mirror” 
Insights into Technology and the Post-Media Condition/.

Very few contemporary television programs provoke spirited responses 
quite like the dystopian series Black Mirror. This provocative program, 
infamous for its myriad apocalyptic portrayals of humankind's 
relationship with an array of electronic and digital technologies, has 
proven quite adept at offering insightful commentary on a number of 
issues facing contemporary society. This timely collection draws on 
innovative and interdisciplinary theoretical frameworks to provide 
unique perspectives about how confrontations with such issues should be 
considered and understood through the contemporary post-media condition 
that drives technology use.
