<br/><br/> "Web Theory is a comprehensive and critical introduction to the theories of the Internet and the World Wide Web. Robert Burnett and P. David Marshall examine the key debates which surround Internet culture: from issues of globalization, political economy and regulation, to ideas about communication, identity and aesthetics.<br/>Web Theory explores the shifts in society, culture and the media which have been brought about by the growth of the World Wide Web. It identifies significant readings, Web sites and hypertext archive sources that illustrate the critical discussion about the Internet and it mediates these discussions, indicating key positions within each debate and pointing the reader to key texts."--Provided by the publisher.
