Humans R Social Media

by Diana Daly, Jacquie Kuru, Nathan Schneider, Alexandria Fripp, and iVoices Media Lab

Social media and humans exist in a world of mutual influence, and humans play central roles in how this influence is mediated and transferred. Originally created by University of Arizona Information scholar Diana Daly, this 2024 "living book" edition of Humans R Social Media welcomes additional authors and features contributions by students to help readers understand how we as humans shape social media, and how social media shapes our world in turn.
