pp. xvi, (3), 192. “In this passionate and down-to-earth book, Heather Menzies–one of Canada’s leading writers on technology and society–steers us through the jargon of the Information Highway, globalization and the Internet to grasp the moral and political issues at stake in the Brave New World of the new economy. Menzies reveals how the official discourse has stifled a critical understanding of what’s happening. She counters with positive suggestions for reviving public debate, and for renegotiating the new economy and the Information Highway to offer meaningful employment and participation for all. For anyone concerned about the future of work and the public good, Whose Brave New World? is a must-read.” Signed by the author on the title page.
