Visit the Unspun website which includes Table of Contents and the
Introduction. The World Wide Web has cut a wide path through our
daily lives. As claims of "the Web changes everything" suffuse
print media, television, movies, and even presidential campaign
speeches, just how thoroughly do the users immersed in this new
technology understand it? What, exactly, is the Web changing? And
how might we participate in or even direct Web-related change?
Intended for readers new to studying the Internet, each chapter in
Unspun addresses a different aspect of the "web
revolution"--hypertext, multimedia, authorship, community,
governance, identity, gender, race, cyberspace, political economy,
and ideology--as it shapes and is shaped by economic, political,
social, and cultural forces. The contributors particularly focus on
the language of the Web, exploring concepts that are still emerging
and therefore unstable and in flux. Unspun demonstrates how the
tacit assumptions behind this rhetoric must be examined if we want
to really know what we are saying when we talk about the Web.
Unspun will help readers more fully understand and become
critically aware of the issues involved in living, as we do, in a
wired society. Contributors include: Jay Bolter, Sean Cubitt, Jodi
Dean, Dawn Dietrich, Cynthia Fuchs, Matthew Kirschenbaum, Timothy
Luke, Vincent Mosco, Lisa Nakamura, Russell Potter, Rob Shields,
John Sloop, and Joseph Tabbi.
