Book Summary and Thoughts - Reclaiming Conversation: The Power of Talk in a Digital Age by Sherry Turkle

Hi, everyone. Today I'm going to give a quick summary and my thoughts on a book published in 2015 by Sherry Turkle called Reclaiming Conversation: The Power of Talk in a Digital Age.  I'm a book lover and I'm always reading or listening to several books. I have an eyes-are-bigger-than-stomach relationship with books. My bedside table looks like //this// at all times. I listened to this book on audio and I also got a hard copy from the library. Since I almost exclusively listen to non-fiction books and memoirs, I sometimes find it difficult to follow the author's cognitive organization, so I try to have a hard copy to look at as well.   Just to be clear, I'm not a book reviewer.  I'm mostly interested in sharing a brief summary and thoughts.  Some people don't have the time or inclination to read the entire almost 400 page book, but are interested in a summary. Others might be intrigued by this synopsis and seek out the book to learn more. Either way...
