Internet Revolution
Library Binding
(Heinemann Sept. 11, 2002)
"Don't get too attached to current technologies. One thing is certainÐeverything is about to change." Did you know that by mid-2002, more than 500 million people worldwide had access to the Internet? That these Internet users could access more than eight million websites? Or that e-mail is overtaking normal postal services in popularity? So, how can this explosion in available information be used and controlled? Science at the Edge: Internet Revolution looks at the extraordinary development of Internet technology from its small-scale beginning as a tool to help university scientists communicate. It examines how the Internet can benefit medicine, education, business, communication, and popular culture. It also looks at the new challenges the Internet has raised concerning security, freedom of information, and criminal activity. The Science at the Edge series is about development and theories in science that are both interesting and sometimes cause for concern. Each book in the series explains how the science was discovered, how it works, how it can help people, and why it may not be completely accepted by everyone.
