The era of the new information revolution is arriving faster than
any other era in the history of humanity-and its implications for
communication, work, democracy, and education are discussed in
detail in this volume. New Information Revolution includes coverage
of universal access, the potential merging of
cable/telephone/computer companies and public libraries or post
offices as online resource centers; the redefinition of community
from the place where one lives to cyberspace, where groups emerge
with like interests; and the redefinition of work to center upon
manipulating information, telecommuting, and virtual companies. The
potential for conducting education online is also examined, as well
as issues of security and censorship. This volume will interest
students, educators, and citizens concerned with the emerging
"information superhighway" and its implications for daily life.
