Breaking the Social Media Prism: How to Make Our Platforms Less Polarizing

Focused on how to Make Our Platforms Less Polarizing, Breaking the Social Media Prism brings Christopher Bail's science narrative to a complex and consequential subject. Moving between close detail and context, the book explains the forces surrounding its subject and connects them to the connected fields of computers and social science. Rather than isolating its subject, the book shows how private experience and public systems continually influenced one another. What emerges is a nuanced account of the subject, its immediate consequences, and its wider meaning.
