Excellent Condition As Promised
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
The book arrived within 5 days, with very few markings as the description stated. I wasn't expecting the CD because it wasn't in the item details, so that was a plus. Overall I'm very happy with this product.
heavy stuff

nice coverage of essential writings historically, but the hardcover edition is quite heavy to carry around.
Rosetta Stone of Hypertext
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
This huge tome is a must have for anyone who wants to deeply understand hypertext and its precursors. From William Burroughs to Doug Englebart and Augosto Boal to Ted Nelson this book presents a huge range of articles (and discursive commentary) of interest to computer scientists, writers, new media workers, artists and everyone in between. This is one stop shopping for new media literacy with over 800 pages of good stuff, much of it very hard to find outside of this volume.
Well done!

Fascinating, thorough in its analysis, beautifully designed reader/player. Good, well-rounded selection of texts and new media objects with no attempt to be exhaustive (to the editors' credit). I plan to use it as one of the texts in an upcoming university course.
