Fine in Very Good jacket. Book Octavo, hardcover, fine in near fine black pictorial dj. 249 pp. plus index. Completes an informal trilogy examining the ramifications of information technology in everyday life. Describes the transformation of wireless technology in the 100 years since Marconi-the scaling up of networks and the scaling down of the apparatus for transmission and reception. This transformation has, changed our relationship with our surroundings and with each other. With increasing frequency, events in physical space reflect events in cyberspace, and vice versa; digital information can, for example, direct the movement of an aircraft or a robot arm. Examines the effects of wireless linkage, global interconnection, miniaturization and portability on our bodies, our clothing, our architecture, our cities and our uses of space and time. a world governed less and less by boundaries and more and more by connections requires us to re-imagine and reconstruct our environment and to reconsider the ethical foundations of design, engineering and planning practice.
