Drawing on the ideas of Marshall McLuhan, Marx, and the German philosophers, Han (College of Staten Island-CUNY) offers a survey of what he calls the "technomedia," the generation of communication technologies after television, cell phones, and the first wave of the Internet. He explores the nature and effects of the blogosphere, Blackberries, and related technologies, within the context of modern social theory. Touching on the meaning of knowledge, subjectivity, and politics, he examines cultural value and viral video, Freud and Internet shopping, and the cultural-informational politics of hip-hop. Boxes provide background on the many philosophers and theorists referenced. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
