Media scholar and MIT professor Sherry Turkle has spent thirty years studying the psychology of our relationship with technology. In her book, RECLAIMING CONVERSATION: The Power of Talk in a Digital Age, she shows how a flight from conversation undermines our relationships, creativity, and productivity, and why reclaiming face-to-face conversation can help us regain lost ground. We recently talked with Sherry Turkle about the importance of conversation in our digital world.
