The Internet
by Daniel Miller and
Don Slater (Oxford: Berg) On the basis of perhaps the first regional study of the Internet, this book challenges concepts of virtual reality. Instead, it investigates how the Internet has become part of people's lives - from the middle class to squatters, from popular culture to ecommerce in Trinidad. Clearly written for the non-specialist reader, it offers a detailed account of the complex integration between on-line and off-line worlds. Summary
