What's Next in The Connected Mind Series

I'm excited to share what's coming up in The Connected Mind Series. After exploring individual psychology and technology in the first few books, I am expanding the lens to look at communities, relationships, organizations, and our evolving relationship with artificial intelligence.

Book 3: "The Social Psychology of Technology: How Digital Tools Reshape Communities" (2026)

Ever notice how your work team dynamics shifted when you went remote? Or how online communities can feel more real than your neighborhood? This book explores how digital platforms are fundamentally changing the way groups form, function, and evolve. We'll dive into everything from why some online communities thrive while others implode, to how social media is creating entirely new forms of identity and belonging.

Book 4: "Technology and Human Connection: The Psychology of Digital Relationships" (2027)

Here's where it gets personal. How do we actually connect through screens? Why do some digital relationships feel deeper than face-to-face ones, while others leave us feeling more isolated than ever? We'll explore how different platforms affect emotional intimacy, what happens to empathy when it's mediated by technology, and how families are navigating connection across both distance and generations.
