Keen, Andrew

Recommended for technologists, policymakers, and consumers, this book builds a case for using lessons of the past and capacities of the present to build a livable, global future in which digital innovation serves the social good.

A must-read for technophiles and business leaders, or those curious about technologyís societal effects. - Leigh Mihlrad, FDIC Lib., Washington, DC

There may be a few too many twists and turns for the average reader; Keen calls on quite a bit of philosophy and sociology to make his points. Those invested in the ongoing social media debate or concerned about the future of privacy will appreciate his thoughts best. [See Prepub Alert, 12/12/11.]
