Feb 26 2009 - Webcast with Authors of Pearson's Blown to Bits

Safari Books Online, the leading provider of an on-demand digital library for technology, creative and business professionals, will feature Hal Abelson, Ken Ledeen and Harry Lewis, authors of Blown to Bits: Your Life, Liberty and Happiness after the Digital Explosion, published by Pearson’s Addison-Wesley Professional, in a webcast on Thursday, February 26, 2009, at 10:00 a.m. PST / 1:00 p.m. EST.

In Blown to Bits, co-authors Abelson, Ledeen and Lewis provide readers the knowledge they need to help shape their own digital futures, while not letting others do it for them. Blown to Bits builds on the authors’ pioneering MIT/Harvard course. Together, the authors teach “Quantitative Reasoning 48,” an innovative Harvard course on information for non-technical, non-mathematically oriented students.

In this webcast, the authors will reveal how the digital revolution is changing everything, in ways that are stunning even the most informed experts. Webcast participants will learn how the decisions corporations and governments are making right now will shape their futures and how they can have a say in those decisions.
