Summing Up: Recommended" - N.J. Johnson, formerly, Metropolitan State University, for CHOICE, September 2013"This timely collection highlights current concerns about the psychology of digital media use in the workplace - from email to social networks, from computer games to video conferencing, and from corporate training to surveillance. Each case study raises the question whether our high expectations about networked and mobile computing are over-hyped or justified, and how they impact work-life balance and productivity." - Peter Krapp, University of California, Irvine, USA
