The Psychology of Silicon Valley offers a revealing look inside the mind of world's most influential industry and how the identity culture myths and motivations of Big Tech are harming society.The book argues that the bad values and lack of emotional intelligence borne in the vacuum of Silicon Valley will have lasting consequences on everything from social equality to the future of work to our collective mental health.
