Marx and digital machines : alienation, technology, capitalism
This book explores the fundamental contradiction at the heart of the digital environment: technology offers all manner of promises, yet habitually fails to deliver. This failure often arises from numerous problems: the proficiency of the technology or end-user, policy failure at various levels, or a combination of these. Solutions such as better technology and more effective end-user education …

As what is image becomes increasingly indistinguishable against the viewer’s actual surroundings, this unsettling prompts re-examination ab…

B C, Before Computers : on information technology from writing to the age of …
I found it a delight to read. The author is not trying to write yet another book on the history of computer developments but rather to show that those developments rely on a long history of humans creating solutions to problems that arose as they became more and more sophisticated in their treatment of concepts of information and its manipulation. In many ways it resembles a work of philosophy …
