The word 'data' has entered everyday conversation, but do we really
understand what it means? How can we begin to grasp the scope and
scale of our new data-rich world, and can we truly comprehend what
is at stake? In Data Lives, renowned social scientist Rob Kitchin
explores the intricacies of data creation and charts how
data-driven technologies have become essential to how society,
government and the economy work. Creatively blending scholarly
analysis, biography and fiction, he demonstrates how data are
shaped by social and political forces, and the extent to which they
influence our daily lives. He reveals our data world to be one of
potential danger, but also of hope.
