Rob Myers reviews Jaron Lanier's book 'You Are Not A Gadget'.
http://www.furtherfield.org/displayreview.php?review_id=392

"Necessary reading for anyone interested in how the Web and the software 
we use every day are reshaping culture and the marketplace." Michiko 
Kakutani, New York Times.

"Jaron Lanier's book 'You Are Not A Gadget' is a timely polemic, a cry 
of the soul in an increasingly soulless Web 2.0 world. I found reading 
it a frustrating and inspiring experience. For every time I wanted to 
throw the book at the wall in exasperation there was a time where Lanier 
spoke to a part of me that the cultural transition from 90s cyberpunk to 
2010s cyberpreppy had optimised out." Rob Myers.
