The Fourth Revolution by Luciano Floridi
There is no aspect of our lives that is unaffected by modern information and communication technologies (ICTs). Luciano Floridi argues that we may be witnessing a 'fourth revolution', in which our perception of ourselves is altered by these information technologies, which are creating and transforming our realities.
