Reviews

Internet cafes in China have become a far more significant phenomenon than the computer corners in US public libraries because of certain social, political, economic, and technology reasons. Sun 's insightful book provides a long-needed comprehensive reading for any one who wants to learn Internet evolution and revolution in China.--Zixiang Tan

Helen Sun details the meticulous methods used by the Chinese Communist Party to monitor China's Internet communication, particularly at Internet bars. At the same time, she also vividly describes the political energy and democratic discourse unleashed by the Internet, primarily among the younger generation. Internet Policy in China provides a vivid picture of momentous political and social changes under way in China today.--Merle Goldman
