Synopsis "Email and the Everyday: Stories of Disclosure, Trust, and Digital Labor"

An exploration of how email is experienced, understood, and materially structured as a practice spanning our everyday domestic and work lives.Despite its many obituaries, email is not dead. As a global mode of business and personal communication, email outstrips newer technologies of online interaction; it is deeply embedded in our everyday lives. And yet--perhaps because the ubiquity of email has obscured its study--this is the first scholarly book devoted to email as a key historical, social, and commercial site of digital communication in our everyday lives. In Email and the Everyday, Esther Milne examines how email is experienced, understood, and materially structured as a practice spanning the domestic and institutional spaces of daily life.
