Professor Housley's book demonstrates the power of interactionist theory, methods, and studies for the analysis of society in the digital age, and shows how digitally infused social changes are embedded within the organisation of social and societal processes. -- Dirk vom Lehn


Professor Housley's book demonstrates the power of interactionist theory, methods, and studies for the analysis of society in the digital age, and shows how digitally infused social changes are embedded within the organisation of social and societal processes. -- Dirk vom Lehn Housley's brilliantly engaging book shows that an interactionist perspective on society in the digital age is precisely what is needed to inform debates - within a range of disciplines - about automation, big data, social media platforms, and their implications for communication and the interactional construction of the social world. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in better identifying the most important questions for the future of civic society in ways that give us any hope of answering them. -- Dr Saul Albert
