Reviews

In this volume, 11 pieces explore the nature of critical theory in the age of hypertext, looking variously at computers and democracy, art and pedagogy, indeterminacy, hypertext as resistance, and other probings of the cultural, political, economic, and social effects of the emergence of hypertext. --'Journal of Communication' A significant contribution to a growing body of theory for the new electronic technology of writing. As I read one essay after another, I was struck by the diversity and originality of the approaches taken. Yet all of the essays are clearly theoretical, and all of them show that hypertext deserves a serious theoretical treatment. --Jay David Bolter, Georgia Institute of Technology, author of 'Writing Space: The Computer, Hypertext, and the History of Writing '
