Why are human beings so attracted to information and communication technologies? Developments in this field have formed new social networks around these technologies and that seem to compete with pre-existing structures in human lives. Cristian Mendoza and Lluís Clavell confront this phenomenon and its effect on human happiness, but have no desire to condemn the trajectory of human reliance on communication technology. Rather, they see an opportunity to explore human nature at greater depths. Only in this way can our use of technology properly support human activity and not sabotage our grasp of reality. 

Mendoza and Clavell's treatment of this topic renders an important philosophical conversation about digital realities and how they can actually make human life more human. This book provides a framework for using human attraction to information and communication tech for human benefit. It can be done! The authors apply the work of old and new masters to help open the new horizons of communication technology wherein human beings can flourish.

Fr Cristian Mendoza is an associate professor in the School of Theology at the Pontifical University of the Holy Cross in Rome. His area of expertise lies in Catholic Social Teaching and he teaches in the School of Church Communications a course on the economic dimension of the Catholic Church. Monsignor Lluís Clavell is a professor emeritus of Metaphysics, former rector of the Pontifical University of the Holy Cross and former president of the Pontifical Academy of St Thomas Aquinas. He is advisor for the Pontifical Council for Culture, and member of the governing board of the Aquinas International Society.
