presents historical and comparative perspectives on the social and

access to IT; and critically examines the assumptions underpinning
technological development. Divided into five sections, each with a
detailed introduction, the book provides a comprehensive overview
of information technology, and its implications for all of us.
Contributors place the debates around IT in an international
context, illustrating the importance of social values as well as
government policy. Information Technology and Society is a Course
Reader for the new Open University Course THD204 Information
Technology and Society.
