Rezensionen

"Potts has drawn together a fairly diverse representation of views on the future of writing amid the technologically-driven challenges and prospects on our foreseeable horizon. ... The collection forms an important waypoint for authors and researchers interested in not only predictive manoeuvres, but also gaining further understanding of present transformations in the way we orient ourselves to the market and its making." (Ross Watkins, Text Journal, Vol. 19, October, 2015)
