«¿Sociedad virtual? Tecnología, "cibérbole", realidad» is Steve Woolgar's essay on technology and society, published by Editorial UOC in paperback.
The book brings together empirical studies on the creation and use of new electronic technologies and their real effect on social, cultural, economic and political life. Against the idea of an imminent virtual society, it proposes an analytical scepticism that questions common assumptions about the impact of the Internet and reviews the connections between the real and the virtual in different areas of application.
First edition published in 2010; it belongs to the Nuevas Tecnologías y Sociedad collection.
Aimed at students and researchers in social sciences and management, and at professionals working with virtual technologies.
