A new must-have reference book for Internet Studies." <i>Caroline Haythornthwaite, University of Illinois</i><br /> <br /> "This indispensable volume reflects the complexity of Internet studies--indeed, the Internet itself--by bringing together a diverse set of voices, geographies, disciplines, and arguments. It is not only an important resource for practitioners, but will also spark the curiosity of those on the edges of the field, including humanists, social scientists, and engineers alike."  <i>Michael Zimmer, University of Wisconsin</i><br /> <br /> <i>"The Handbook of Internet Studies</i> is a comprehensive and useful volume that will appeal to students, teachers and researchers.
