Written during February and December 2010, these are her comments on all aspects of Chinese and Western literature and arts. These writings stand the test of time because their subjects do.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompared to Sunflower's first book, \u003cem\u003eThe Secret of Time\u003c\/em\u003e, the writing style in \u003cem\u003eBlog Therapy\u003c\/em\u003e is more objective, based more on professional research and analysis and less on personal reflection. While the 40 essays collected here continue to highlight Sunflower's passion in generating new connections between seemingly irrelevant ideas, views, techniques and genres, they also include a series of discussions and debates on various unique Internet phenomena, including blog therapy, Web 2.0, Human Flesh Search, and the notorous \"grass mud horse\" in China, just to name a few. Her interests on the emerging trend of digital publishing and reading are also evident.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThroughout \u003cem\u003eBlog Therapy\u003c\/em\u003e, Sunflower is of the view that one of the most important functions of the Internet is to help promote democractic values. While everyone should have a voice and a channnel through which such voice can be heard, they also have unlmited access not only to other people's views but also to means by which they can freely respond to these views. Looking back at this today, it is amazing how the Internet has evolved since 2010.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Solid Software Pty Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45126463520919,"sku":"9781925462197","price":887.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781925462197.webp?v=1767621490","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/blog-therapy-traditional-chinese-edition-9781925462197","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
