[媒體推薦/Reviews]

“Technologies have been shaping [our] emotional culture for more than a century, argue computer scientist Luke Fernandez and historian Susan Matt in this original study. Marshalling archival sources and interviews, they trace how norms (say, around loneliness) have shifted with technological change.”

——Nature

“A powerful story of how new forms of technology are continually integrated into the human experience…Anyone interested in seeing the digital age through a new perspective should be pleased with this rich account.”

——Publishers Weekly

Bored, Lonely, Angry, Stupid is a crisp and compelling read. The authors make extensive use of on-the-ground human perspectives, from both the historical record and personal interviews, lending the book a verisimilitude that is exceedingly rare.

--William Powers, author of Hamlet's BlackBerry: Building a Good Life in the Digital Age

Impressive...A well-articulated and nuanced analysis of the overlooked symbiosis between the cultural history of emotions and technological developments.

--Alina Ivan"The Psychologist" (01/01/2020)

In this wonderful book we learn that new ideas are often just repeats from the past, and we may get more than we bargained for with our latest technological engagements. Bored, Lonely, Angry, Stupid is a must-read for anyone worried about how today's surfeit of digital devices may challenge our humanity, and wondering if, given the emotional costs, we might choose another way.

--Safiya Umoja Noble, author of Algorithms of Oppression

[內容簡介/Book De*ion]

Facebook makes us lonely. Selfies breed narcissism. On Twitter, hostility reigns. Pundits and psychologists warn that digital technologies substantially alter our emotional states, but in this lively look at our evolving feelings about technology since the advent of the telegraph, we learn that the gadgets we use don’t just affect how we feel―they can profoundly change our sense of self. When we say we’re bored, we don’t mean the same thing as a Victorian dandy. Could it be that political punditry has helped shape a new kind of anger? Luke Fernandez and Susan J. Matt take us back in time to consider how our feelings of loneliness, vanity, and anger have evolved in tandem with new technologies.
