Produktbeschreibung
Discussing everything from small decisions that paralyze us to big data that knows everything about us, this book is a guide to navigating the surprising complexities of a networked age when the things that are now shaping experience have no weight or size. The dictionary defines "scale" as a range of numbers, used as a system to measure or compare things.
