What’s Happening in Cyber Space? : An Interdisciplinary Approach

The term “cyberspace” that entered into our lives towards the end of the 20th century isdefined as: “a global platform that consists of the network containing the infrastructuresof information technologies with Internet, communication networks, computer systems,embedded processors and controllers”. When this term is analysed, it is seen thatnearly all informatics systems minimize the human control and at many platforms,they are connected to each other. Although the term “cyberspace” is very new, it is likea living organism that is coordinated with scientific disciplines such as finance, defence,health, education, transportation and security, in all manned and unmanned areas. Ourinteraction with this organism covers almost all our lifespan. When looked closer, it isseen that cyberspace must be researched not only from technology side but also fromsociology and psychology sides. So, welcome to the cyberspace journey that we preparedfor you in our book What's Happening in Cyberspace?
