Diving Into the Bitstream: Information Technology Meets Society in a Digital World de Barry Dumas

Diving Into the Bitstream: Information Technology Meets Society in a Digital World

Autor Barry Dumas
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 aug 2012
Nationwide, and indeed worldwide, there has been a growing awareness of the importance of access to information. Accordingly, information technology (IT), broadly defined and its role beyond the internal workings of businesses has leapt into the social consciousness.
Diving into the Bitstream distinguishes itself by weaving together the concepts and conditions of IT. What distinguishes these trends is their focus on the impacts of IT on societies, and the responsibilities of IT’s creators and users. The author pulls together important, often complex issues in the relationships among information, information technologies, and societal constructs.
The text explores a synopsis of these issues that are foundations for further consideration.

Descriere

This book weaves together the concepts and conditions of IT to offer a contextualized look at one of the most popular, relevant, and promising industries of today. But what distinguishes this book is its focus on the impact of IT on societies, and the responsibilities of IT’s creators and users. The author pulls together important, often complex issues from the relationships among information, information technologies, and societal constructs. With its wide array of topics and easy-to-process language and presentation, this book creates a space for a reader to not only learn, but also to evaluate and question the implications of IT's place in society.
