New Book Reviews in Cyberculture Studies
Each month, the Resource Center for Cyberculture Studies (RCCS)
http://otal.umd.edu/~rccs/
publishes two or three full-length book reviews.
The reviews reflect a modest attempt to locate critically various
contours of the emerging and interdisciplinary field of cyberculture
studies. To date, RCCS has reviewed over 75 books, covering a range of
topics, from online culture, communities, and identities to hypertext,
digital literacy, and online pedagogy to Internet policy, the digital
divide, and online privacy.
New reviews (found at
http://otal.umd.edu/~rccs/books ) include:
Beth Kolko, Lisa Nakamura, and Gilbert Rodman, eds., Race in Cyberspace
(Routledge, 2000)
Reviewed by Emily Noelle Ignacio, Loyola University Chicago and Andrew
Jakubowicz, University of Technology, Sydney, Australia;
Tor Norretranders, The User Illusion: Cutting Consciousness Down To Size
(Viking Press, 1999)
Reviewed by Tavia Turkish, Yale University;
Kimberly S. Young, Caught in the Net: How to Recognize the Signs of
Internet Addiction and a Winning Strategy for Recovery (John Wiley &
Sons, 1998)
Reviewed by Thorsten Kogge, Humboldt University, Berlin.
