Communication of "Digigeneration" and with "Digigeneration" - Temporary Intergenerational Controversy?

Abstract

The author describes especially negative effects of excessive use of digital technologies, both on human health (not only M. Spitzer' hypothesis) and the health system ("digicounselling", "Mc Doctors", "digihospitals").

The author also shows controversial communication between "digital natives" (young people) and "digital immigrants" (older generations, who, though, have created digital technology) and its demonstration in the teaching of medicine.
