Just finished reading this interesting anecdote about the rise and fall and re-rise of the information economy. There's a lot about IP law/policy, the Microsoft scandals of the 90's, stuff about the F/OSS revolution, and discussion about the great information sharing software of our time (Napster, etc.)

 

More of a history than a debate about the current times, but there are many questions that this book brings up that really questions how we should be dealing with the "information economy" of today and tomorrow. Give it try if you wanna =)
