Reviews
"If you ever thought using the Internet is straightforward, this book will change your mind. Its many complexities are laid out here posing challenges to all of us as users, and to some of us as interface and content designers, educators, and policymakers. All these challenges must be met, the authors argue, if the Internet is not to exacerbate the already problematic inequalities in our society." - Sonia Livingstone, Department of Media and Communications, London School of Economics and Political Science, UK
