Program or be Programmed by Douglas Rushkoff

Is the internet good or bad? How can technology be directed? In this spirited, accessible poetics of new media, Rushkoff picks up where Marshall McLuhan left off, helping readers come to recognise programming as the new literacy of the digital age and as a template through which to see beyond social conventions and power structures that have vexed us for centuries. This is a friendly little book with a big and actionable message.

Douglas Rushkoff is a media theorist who specializes in human autonomy in the digital era. He teaches at CUNY/Queens, runs the Team Human podcast, and is the author of numerous best-selling books, including Present Shock, which MIT named one of the world's 10 most important intellectuals. Hastings-on-Hudson, New York is his home.
