Produktbeschreibung
The setting for this book is the networked community. The treatment of the subject matter is broad and interdisciplinary, with contributions from computer science, sociology, design, human factors and communication technology.

The chapter contributors, drawn from across Europe and North America, offer a varied prospectus of commentary, critique, sociological enquiry, technological development and research findings, which provides a rounded account of the progressive intermingling of social and electronic networks.

The contributors discuss the ways in which the Internet affects both familial and social relationships, communal and civic involvement, social capital and work patterns and lifestyle. Civic intelligence is presented as a nascent concept from which future social networks of increased public advocacy, scrutiny and action may be sourced. Other reported developments include agent-based community systems to model and support communal memory and social knowledge.

Rezensionen
From the reviews:

"This book will interest our readers who are working in the fields of sociocybernetics as well as those with a bias towards online interactions. ... In many ways this text has been opened up new ground and is the fore-runner of many more that will consider the issues of people and their connection to the new technology. ... it provides an instructive read with the relevant collected, articles well matched and presented by the editor." (D. M. Hutton, Kybernetes, Vol. 37 (2), 2008)
