Issues in Cyberspace

Summary: A Review by Daphne Baylor Dean and Kevin Yeoman
Review: Like most things in life this book had several good and bad aspects. We really enjoyed the diverse topics that the author explored. He wrote in depth on issues ranging from new media technologies, e-commerce, and privacy to hacking, copyright issues and indecencies. All these issues brought about some very thought provoking inquires for us as readers. We also appreciated the book's anti-commercialization stance on cyberspace. In contrast, one major drawback is the means by which the author heavily intertwined legal issues in every chapter of the book. People without a high interest for law may not appreciate the author's expertise in the field of law. Overall, we thought this book would be worth reading for anyone interested in cyberworld issues.

Summary: Book Review
Review: Our group enjoyed reading this book and were surprised how up-to-date the book was on current events. The book was full of interesting information about the history and future of the Internet. However, we found the book cited too many law cases and legal issues regarding the Internet. The author would go into great lengths to explain something when a simple statement was all that was needed. To conclude, the author did present a book describing how communication, technology, law, and society play a major role on the Internet frontier.
