內容簡介: |
The first generation of “Digital Natives”—children who were
born into and raised in the digital world—are coming of age, and
soon our world will be reshaped in their image. Our economy, our
politics, our culture, and even the shape of our family life will
be forever transformed. But who are these Digital Natives? And what
is the world they’re creating going to look like?
In Born Digital, leading Internet and technology
experts John Palfrey and Urs Gasser offer a sociological portrait
of these young people, who can seem, even to those merely a
generation older, both extraordinarily sophisticated and strangely
narrow. Exploring a broad range of issues, from the highly
philosophical to the purely practical, Born Digital will be
essential reading for parents, teachers, and the myriad of confused
adults who want to understand the digital present—and shape the
digital future.
