Reviews

From the reviews: A book dealing with the history of CSCW and technological development ... . This is a valuable and informative piece of work. ... this book contributes with a number of very interesting and thought-provoking discussions that force the reader to reflect and examine one's own position. ... I very much appreciate the extensive work that Schmidt has done on collaborative work, both empirically and theoretically, which I find fundamental and a must-read to researchers in the CSCW area. (Maria Normark, Computer Supported Cooperative Work, Vol. 21, 2012)
