A brilliant introduction to social media that explains how it works behind the flashy screens.

He concludes with some reasonable ways for users to protect themselves from the dangers of its manipulation. --Bruce A. Little, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, emeritus Unfriending Dystopia blends a deep understanding of technology and human nature to expose why social media can be so destructive and suggest practical strategies everyone can use to avoid the pitfalls while keeping the value. In a few short chapters, Russ gives us a clear call to be neither a Luddite nor a technophile, but rather to understand technologies in their own terms, and to learn how to use them effectively without becoming their servant. --Chris Brady, CEO, Life Leadership
