In this groundbreaking work, Hollis Thorne explores the uncharted territory of synthetic grief. Drawing on evolutionary psychology, neuroscience, and moving case studies, The Bot-Loss Syndrome offers a profound map for the post-biological era of love and loss.
In this book, you will discover:For anyone who has ever felt a "real" connection with a "virtual" being, this book is your validation, your guide, and your vision for the future of intimacy.
