In an age where social media is so prevalent its easy to write it all off as self-promotion. In this book Lee Humphreys offers a different perspective, arguing that in fact modern social media is merely the latest incarnation of a centuries long desire to document the mundane in our lives. An exploration of the motivations behind our use of social media and how it relates to our construction of the self, this book offers an alternative theory on what drives us to use technology and social media platforms.
