The Impact on Our Lives.

'Internet' considers the social and moral implications of life in a "global village". What is the Internet, and who uses it? What is the World Wide Web, and how does it differ from the Internet?

This book examines the dramatic impact of the Internet upon our lives, whether we use it for work, education, entertainment or shopping. It looks at the advantages - for example, the freedom of information and breaking down of language barriers - and at the disadvantages - the easy access to pornography, the dangers of chat lines and saturation advertising.

The '21st Century Debates' series looks at the way in which technology affects our lives. At the dawn of a new millennium, humanity finds itself equipped with unprecedented powers in the areas of science, communication and social control. Where are these new technologies taking us? Are they leading to the kind of society in which we want to live? This series examines the difficult decisions and awesome responsibilities faced by governments, organisations and individuals concerned with the effects of such rapid progress.
