Summary

Social Media Effects explores the profound psychological and social impacts of online platforms, particularly on mental health. It examines how constant exposure to curated content and the pressure to maintain an online persona can affect self-esteem, especially among adolescents and young adults. The book highlights the effects of cyberbullying and online harassment, revealing how these negative online interactions can significantly undermine psychological well-being.

 
Beginning with the historical development of social media and foundational concepts in psychology, the book progresses through individual chapters dedicated to specific impacts, such as body image and sleep patterns. It also delves into the influence of social media algorithms on mood and cognition, demonstrating how these algorithms can inadvertently contribute to mental health challenges. The book uniquely balances potential benefits with risks, providing an evidence-based analysis of social media's multifaceted role in modern life.

 
This book is particularly valuable for those seeking a comprehensive understanding of the current research on social media's impact on digital well-being. It draws from longitudinal studies and experimental research to investigate correlations between social media usage and mental health outcomes, presenting a balanced and accessible analysis suitable for students, researchers, and anyone interested in the intersection of technology and mental health.

    The history of the tablets translated in the following pages is strange and beyond modern scientists' comprehension. Their age is astounding, dating back 36,000 years B.C. Thoth is an Atlantean Priest-King who established a colony in ancient Egypt after the mother country was sunk. He was the builder of the Great Pyramid of Giza, which has been incorrectly attributed to Cheops. He included his knowledge of ancient wisdom as well as securely hidden records and instruments from ancient Atlantis. 
From approximately 50,000 B.C. to 36.000 B.C., he ruled the ancient race of Egypt for approximately 16,000 years. The ancient barbarous race among which he and his followers had settled had advanced to a high level of civilization at the time. Thoth was immortal, that is, he had defeated death, passing only when he wished and not through death. His vast knowledge elevated him to the throne of the various Atlantean colonies, including those in South and Central America. 
When the time came for him to leave Egypt, he built the Great Pyramid over the entrance to the Great Halls of Amenti, placed his records inside, and appointed guards from among the highest of his people to guard his secrets. The descendants of these guards later became the pyramid priests, through whom Thoth was deified as the God of Wisdom, The Recorder, by those living in the age of darkness that followed his death. The halls of Amenti were transformed into the underworld, the Halls of the Gods, where the soul passed after death for judgment. 
The ego of Thoth passed into the bodies of men in later ages, as described in the tablets. As a result, he incarnated three times, the last time as Hermes, the thrice-born. In this incarnation, he left the Emerald Tablets, a later and far less complete exposition of the ancient mysteries.
