Since its inception, the internet has morphed from merely an extension of traditional media into its own full-fledged civilisation. It is among mankind's great masterpieces a massive work of art. As an idea, it rivals monotheism. We all inhabit this fascinating place. But its deep logic, its cultural potential, and its societal impact often elude us. In this deep and thoughtful book, Virginia Heffernan presents an original and far-reaching analysis of what the internet is and does.
