Dear Colleagues, I'm delighted to share that my book about Covid and digital inequality, misinformation, social media use, and the intersection of the above is now out from MIT Press. I am posting this in the ICA Public channel as it touches on topics of interest to multiple ICA divisions (CAT, Pol Comm, Health Comm, Mass Comm, Journalism Studies, Mobile Comm, etc.). The book compares data from the US, Italy and Switzerland about how people experienced initial pandemic lockdowns depending on their digital contexts and skills.
This blog post gives an overview of the various chapters and you can see
endorsements here. Please consider asking your library to order a copy. With best wishes, Eszter Hargittai, Professor, University of Zurich & Visiting Research Scholar, Princeton University
