New Book Reviews in Cyberculture Studies
Each month, the Resource Center for Cyberculture Studies
(RCCS)
<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.
