Trade Paperback. Condizione: Used - Very Good. With Me++ the author of City of Bits and e-topia completes an informaltrilogy examining the ramifications of information technology in everyday life.William Mitchell describes the transformation of wireless technology in the hundredyears since Marconi--the scaling up of networks and the scaling down of theapparatus for transmission and reception. It is, he says, as if 'Brobdingnag hadbeen rebooted as Lilliput'; Marconi's massive mechanism of tower and kerosene enginehas been replaced by a palm-size cellphone. If the operators of Marconi's inventioncan be seen as human appendages to an immobile machine, today's hand-held devicescan be seen as extensions of the human body. This transformation has, in turn, changed our relationship with our surroundings and with each other. The cellphonecalls from the collapsing World Trade Center towers and the hijacked jets onSeptember 11 were testimony to the intensity of this new state of continuouselectronic engagement.Thus, Mitchell proposes, the 'trial separation' of bits (theelementary unit of information) and atoms (the elementary unit of matter) is over.With increasing frequency, events in physical space reflect events in cyberspace, and vice versa; digital information can, for example, direct the movement of anaircraft or a robot arm. In Me++ Mitchell examines the effects of wireless linkage, global interconnection, miniaturization, and portability on our bodies, ourclothing, our architecture, our cities, and our uses of space and time. Computerviruses, cascading power outages, terrorist infiltration of transportation networks, and cellphone conversations in the streets are symptoms of a dramatic new urbancondition--that of ubiquitous, inescapable network interconnectivity. He argues thata world governed less and less by boundaries and more and more by connectionsrequires us to reimagine and reconstruct our environment and to reconsider theethical foundations of design, engineering, and planning practice. How the transformation of wireless technology and the creation of an interconnected world are changing our environment and our lives. Open copy with mild wear, clean pages, tight binding.…
