From the reviews: "The objective of the book is to induce a consciousness of these issues by adopting a mildly narrative approach. It is intended for university students, as well as for the lay public. … Corrigan provides notes for every chapter, a list of current references, and a handy index. … I recommend this book to students of information and communication technologies, technologists, administrators, and the general public; they will gain useful insight from it." (S. V. Nagaraj, ACM Computing Reviews, Vol. 49 (8), August, 2008)
