Book Description | Cultural Evolution in the Digital Age is a book by British author Alberto Achirbi, translated by Professor Ahmed Al-Ahmari. When we examine emails, social media, instant messaging, and political memes, we notice a radical change in the way we produce and transmit culture; this highlights the critical importance of understanding the consequences of the widespread dissemination of digital media, both intellectually and socially. The book "Cultural Evolution in the Digital Age" presents its vision of the existence of a "cultural evolution" specialty, which serves as a distinctive theoretical framework, especially when we begin to analyze the digital era. Cultural evolution is also considered an active scientific field that intersects with other scientific domains, in addition to being a scientific framework that achieves consistent scientific results aimed at providing a realistic and quantitative explanation of culture. The author demonstrates how cultural evolution gives us a deep understanding of human behavior based on cognitive sciences, evolutionary theory, and rigorous quantitative experimental methods. The book delves into exploring diverse topics that have resulted directly from cultural evolution research in digital media. It addresses the following questions: Does the form of social influence online significantly differ from previous forms of social influence? Do digital media amplify popular influences and celebrity impacts? What psychological forces prefer the spread of misinformation online? What are the effects of excessive information availability on the internet on cultural accumulation? The cultural evolution approach will provide us with new perspectives and a relatively encouraging view of the overall impacts of our online activities on our culture. As the field of cultural evolution gains increasing interest, the presence of this book is timely; it serves as an important reference for students and researchers in the fields of psychology, humanities, cognitive sciences, and media. |
