- Daniel talks with clinical psychologist Dr.Sherry Turkle about how the Internet has transformed the way people define themselves. Because people are able to take on code names and virtual personas on-line, they are able to take on roles they may have never explored before. Although some people may argue that this is unhealthy, Dr.Turkle insists that it can actually be therapeutic. Her new book on the subject is called "Life on the Screen: Identity in the Age of the Internet" (Simon & Schuster).
