Digital technologies are now ubiquitous, changing the ways we live and learn and creating a new e-connected age of opportunity and risk. The e-Connected World provides a balanced, informed, and imaginative examination of the advent of these new technologies in areas such as education, crime, privacy, democracy, and social exclusion. Contrary to writings that herald the internet as a great liberator or see the information age as a dystopia requiring permanent surveillance, this book argues that we need to understand the changes that are taking place around us before we draw conclusions. The e-Connected World should be of interest to students, policy-makers and citizens seeking to look beyond the digital hype. | The e-Connected World by Stephen Coleman, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
