Black Mirror in Analysis

The British television anthology “Black Mirror”, broadcast on Netflix since 2011, questions the arrival of new technologies in our daily lives. The series offers a black surface in which humanity can contemplate a dystopian future shaped by implants, built-in cameras, hyper-connectivity, virtual reality and the hologram. Each episode appears as one possible evolution of subjective mutations.

In this book the ten authors, all teacher-researchers in clinical psychology and clinical psychologists, each in turn offer a clinical interpretation of the psychic changes at play, through the analysis of seven episodes of the series.
