In this remarkable book Esther Dyson takes a look beyond technology to the people who will live and work in a technological world. Where other internet books have explored what will be possible in this new world, 'Release 2.1' recognises the changes technology will make to society and its structures. Esther Dyson explores the conflicts arising between personal privacy and society's interest in openness; between security and freedom, commerce and community, and the implications for work, education, communities, government and security. Release 2.1 is a visionary book for anyone and everyone who is concerned with the effect of technology on the world. It is a guide to what we can do as individuals to shape our future.
