This timely volume contests the popular claim that computers are addictive by arguing that using the internet is now a form of everyday leisure engaged in by many in Western societies. Offering an analysis of the nature of addiction alongside a detailed empirical study of home computer use, this book will be of interest to sociologists of culture, popular culture, and scholars of media, ICT and education.
