THE PSYCHOLOGY OF SILICON VALLEY - KATY COOK KA...

Misinformation. Job displacement. Information overload. Economic inequality. Digital addiction.
The breakdown of democracy  civility  and truth itself. This open access book explores the
conscious and unconscious norms  values  and characteristics that drive behaviors within the
high-tech capital of the world  Silicon Valley  and the sector it represents. In an era where
the reach and influence of a single industry has the potential to define the future of our
world  it has become apparent just how little we know about the organizations driving these
changes. 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. Katy Cook expertly walks us
through the psychological landscape of Silicon Valley  including its leadership  ethical  and
cultural problems  and artfully explains why we cannot afford to ignore the psychology and
values that are behind our technology any longer.
