Haney 9 Perspectives from China: Social Media and Living Well in a Chinese Context, Sarah MatticeReviewsWe all want to live the good life, but living well starts to look different when we increasingly live through our devices and on our screens. What counts as being a happy and ethical person in the age of social media? How is a technologically mediated community or marketplace ethically different from those we inhabit face to face? Is an online deception is really a lie? Do internet memes create new stereotypes that undermine our ability to respect other members of society? Does a community of online friends and followers change the very nature of friendship? In Social Media and Living Well, Beasley and Haney collect nine thought-provoking attempts to consider questions like these. Policy makers, students of philosophy, and those who work in technology and media will all benefit from the opportunity this accessible and compact volume provides to learn how to think more clearly about our place in the digital world and about how to live with character when we increasingly have only 140 characters to work with. -- Robert Barnard, University of Mississippi Author InformationBerrin A.
