Based on a decade of research undertaken by the UK's Programme on Information and Communication Technologies (PICT), this book explains * how social factors influence technological innovation and convergence; * why organizations seek to transform work, services, and management; * ways in which households domesticate new media; * how public policy andregulation shape the impact of technology on employment, media concentration, privacy, and access in an information society. The thirty contributors include leading figures in the field. |
