Product Description

Book Description

In the dawn of the 21st Century, living on the cutting edge of technology is the key to awareness and survival for the next millennium. The impact of technology -- on individuals, society, economy, and on such legal issues as freedom of expression and copyright, on politics and the reporting of political issues, on sexual politics, and of course, on education -- is immense and ever-changing. Vitanza explores some of todayÕs hottest topics and the increasingly important role that new technologies play in society. The bookÕs introduction places the development of cyberspace in a historical context rooted in the 1960s. Readings in the ten thematically organized chapters range from scholarly to popular sources, debating everything from network security and on-line pornography, to virtual libraries and cyberpunks. Titles include: "Introduction to the Virtual Community," "Crimes of the Net," "Identity Tourism and Racial Passing on the Internet," and "Rape in Cyberspace." All people interested in issues of technology and its effect on culture.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent textbook, April 3 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: CyberReader (Paperback)
This book was the textbook for an intermediate english composition class I took in college. It's a great book that interests students far more than traditional textbooks. All the stories in it are based on Internet and Cyberculture with popular cyberpunk authors and stories. The interactive webpage that goes with this text is also very helpful for students.
