The Anarchist in the Library
18 mei 2004
The Anarchist in the Library - How The Clash Between Freedom And Control Is Hacking The Real World And Crashing The System, is de titel van een nieuw boek door Siva Vaidhyanathan. Hij is tevens de auteur van 'Copyrights and Copywrongs: The Rise of Intellectual Property and How It Threatens Creativity' (New York University Press, 2001).
"This beautifully written and widely informed work weaves together a thousand threads into a rich and convincing story about just what's at stake in the digital age. As Vaidhyanathan powerfully shows, what's at stake has ultimately little to do with things digital. We face a fundamental choice about the nature of cultural freedom. The Internet presents this choice. Against the background of the tapestry that this rising star of culture has crafted, the right choice seems clear."
- Lawrence Lessig, auteur van Free Culture and The Future of Ideas
