Summary, etc. The book you are holding is probably obsolete: it consists of atoms, which are bulky and cumbersome to transport. And, increas ingly, the dominant units of human interaction are bits-"the DNA of information" that has made possible everything from personal computers to CDs. Now the full implications of this sea change are made comprehensible in a landmark book by Nicholas Negroponte, who as a columnist for Wired magazine and a founder of MIT's Media Lab may be the Thomas Jefferson of the digital revolution.<br/><br/>Being Digital decodes the mysteries and debunks the hype sur rounding bandwidth, multimedia, virtual reality, and the Internet. It forecasts technologies that will make your telephone as context sensitive as an English butler and replace TV broadcasters with intelligent "broadcatchers" that assemble and deliver only the pro gramming you want. And this lively, breathtakingly timely book suggests what being digital will mean for our laws, education, politics, and amusements-in short, for the way we live.
