The ideas of information as an autonomous variable and of the primacy of theoretical knowledge have been recurrent themes in discussions of the information society. In this series of eight essays, Julian Warner provides a contrasting perspective on various studies of information technology, which together put a humanistic face on our often unconscious notions of information technology. Definitely Warner’s best work to date.
