Reviews

'... the articles provide a much needed corrective to the critical tendency to represent the new systems for the sending, storing, and retrieving of data as the driving force in the transition from an industrial to knowledge economy... The results will be of interest not only to those concerned with the representation of laboring bodies in popular literature and culture, but with what it means to live at a time in which information is not so much a means of understanding the world as it is a kind of universal currency, the value of which demands the effacement of the manual labor of which it is a product... valuable collection of essays.' Victorian Studies
