The Death of Human Interaction: A Sociologist and Psychologist's Perspective from a Non-Expert in Both Areas

Since the beginning of human existence, interaction amongst people has played an essential role in basic livelihood whether it is for survival, comfort, or pleasure. What if I told you that all of that is about to change or already has... The Death of Human Interaction takes a satirical look at the way technology is influencing the global culture of basic human interaction. It is full of sound observations and colored with several personal stories from the author, many of which are embarrassing. If you've ever been cut off mid-sentence by a friend who values sending a text message over hearing out your point, this book is for you. If you've ever been in a meeting and driven mad by everyone playing with their computers, tablets, and smart phones as opposed to participating in the discussion at hand, please take a read. If you are still baffled by the role and power of social media in today's world... Well you get the point. The author's wife calls it "an instant classic" and suggests that Aaron is a "modern-day Thomas Paine."
