New Book Reviews in Cyberculture Studies (August 2001)

Each month, the Resource Center for Cyberculture
Studies (RCCS) <otal.umd.edu/~rccs/> publishes three
full-length book reviews. The reviews reflect a modest
attempt to locate critically various contours of the
emerging and interdisciplinary field of cyberculture
studies. To date, RCCS has reviewed over 100 books,
covering a range of topics, from online culture,
communities, and identities to hypertext, digital
literacy, and online pedagogy to Internet policy, the
digital divide, and online privacy. 

NEW REVIEWS (http://otal.umd.edu/~rccs/books) include:

Lev Manovich, The Language of New Media (MIT Press,
2001).
Reviewed by Katie Mondloch.

Scott McCloud, Zot!: Hearts and Minds. Published
Online.
Reviewed by Matt Wolf-Meyer.

Review Essay: William J. Mitchell, City of Bits:
Space, Place and the Infobahn (MIT Press, 1996) and
William J. Mitchell, e-topia: "Urban Life, Jim -- But
Not As We Know It" (MIT Press, 1999).
