Description

On the Internet by Routledge explores the profound philosophical implications of digital life and online community through the lens of great thinkers from Plato to Kierkegaard. Hubert Dreyfus draws striking parallels between the disembodied nature of the web and Descartes' mind-body separation, revealing how centuries-old philosophical insights illuminate contemporary internet culture. The book examines how Kierkegaard's analysis of media-driven public consciousness eerily predicts modern web surfers, bloggers and chat room participants. By synthesising philosophical scholarship with empirical studies of internet isolation, this work investigates whether digital networks can truly solve mass education and foster genuine human connection, or whether they risk deepening the existential disconnection already identified by classical philosophers.

Key Features

On the Internet traces philosophical connections between Descartes' dualism and the disembodied nature of web-based interaction.

Kierkegaard's theories about media obsession are applied to explain contemporary blogging, web surfing and online chat behaviour.

The book examines isolation patterns among internet users through both philosophical and empirical research perspectives.

Routledge's publication addresses whether internet technology can genuinely solve problems of mass education and community building.

Hubert Dreyfus synthesises classical philosophy with modern digital culture to challenge assumptions about online human connection.
