Media Reviews
A stimulating contribution from many of the world's leading commentators to the controversies surrounding the social, political, and cultural importance of online community networks. -- Brian D. Loader, editor of Information, Communication & Society
Community in the Digital Age refreshingly updates and extends the debates about who we are when we are online. Smartly linking offline and online realities and interpretations, the authors of the essays collected here provide us with new and clear understandings of community in the information age. This book may well be considered the harbinger of the next generation of community studies. -- Steve Jones, University of Illinois Chicago
If it's a philosophical discussion of how community is changing in the digital age that is needed, you need go no further than Andrew Feenberg and Darin Barney's collection Community in the Digital Age: it updates and extends debates about who we are when we're online, discusses differences between online and offline realities, and provides critical assessments of the Internet's relationships to public life. A challenging survey of one of the fastest-changing relationships in modern times, Community in the Digital Age should be required reading. * The Bookwatch *
