Tim Jordan is Senior Lecturer in the Department of Sociology, University of East London.
"Whether Cyberspace is a place or not, many explorers need
orientation to the digital world--a map. And sociologist Tim Jordan
is ready to provide just that, claiming that 'the patterns of
virtual life are clear enough to be mapped....This book is such a
globe. It is a cartography of powers.'."
-Alan Bilansky, Pennsylvania State University
"Jordan's introduction is remarkable...[he] truly animates this
book.."
-Alan Bilansky, Pennsylvania State University
..."he is a fine representative of how the Internet is discussed in
certain circles...."
-Alan Bilansky, Pennsylvania State University
"I would definitely assign this book.... It serves as an excellent
introduction, and would serve well as a representative of efforts
to map cyberspace, pointing to some popular attractions.."
-Alan Bilansky, Pennsylvania State University
..."Jordan does a good job of giving readers some grounding in the
denser theoretical concepts he wants to employ while providing a
variety of examples...Jordan skillfully works in a wide range of
data while maintaining his theoretical considerations."
