Social media is very useful in the modern era. Like, give some message urgently to mass people.In this village people also use social media to manage family also. In which if parents do jobs and they want to observe their child then they can use mostly Whatsapp for all activities. In a company it helpful to employers to communicate with each other.
Using social media we can meet our old friends and relatives also, we can discuss any problem with many people at one time. Lover and couple use social media in any way, like discuss personal matters and they mainly prefer Whatsapp rather than facebook or twitter. Where they send photos or chat with each other.

For a small family in which parents do jobs and children have unlimited access of internet, in that case, which types of steps must be taken by parents. In this book by real experiments, we can see that how children use misuse of the internet. On the behalf of the experiment, teachers can also aware of students that how can they cheat assignments by the use of social media.

Also in this book, all chapter have conclusion page at an end of the chapter so that we can easily revise again. Also, the last chapter is mainly the conclusion of all previous chapters, so that we can again revise quickly. Such format makes a book more effective. In this book, we can also take a lesson from the author about how tough is the field work and which type of dress is suitable for fieldwork to talk with girls and women comfortably.

Weaknesses of the bookIn this book, the author is doing experiments in a very small place in India that place name isPanchagrami.On the basis of such small village, we can not analysis all country that how socialmedia change the life of people of India Evolution of social media in that village that’s not meanthat this evolution of all country. In this book author, many times write of routine many peoplethat is so much boring for me, I think if the author writes overall what people want and what theyhave is more effective for the reader. In this book author also appreciate students to makecloseness with social media that is very bad in some sense. Because of the closeness ofstudents towards social media divert from the study and this is the horrible condition for ourcountry. Also due to social media like WhatsApp and Facebook, the student, cheat more andwant to do less study because they got the copy of other student and don’t try me. In thisbook author also appreciate boys for use of social media compare to girls, this is not so goodidea.
The author mainly doing the experiment on adult and very less on old persons, if anyonewants to know the view of old persons then how he can know. The author makes a perceptionabout young girls that mainly use social media for love and affair this gives a bad message toour society. And because of this bad message parent of girls will more strict now and the resultof this is, girls will make a distance from social media by force and they can not use it for realpurpose. The author also doing caste basis experiments, in this time he needs to doexperiments on the basis of economy background only so that we can remove caste systemfrom our country and fight for economy and equality only. The author gives ideas to studentsabout using social media in the classroom.
