Review of 'The Net Delusion' on 'Goodreads'

3 estrellas

Good enough premise that I certainly buy into. There is a larger cultural concept that technology will fix our shortcomings as humans, making us smarter and more interested in democracy along the way. This is patently false and the people interested in this idea are either techno-hucksters or politicians without a sense of history. The big downfall about the text is that there’s something unwound about it. I’m sure I can go back into my highlights and pull a more cohesive write-up but as another reviewer said, this would benefit from a unifying theory and perhaps just improved editing.
