The Internet of Elsewhere

The Internet of Elsewhere: The Emergent Effects of a Wired World (ISBN 0813549620) is a 2011 book by Cyrus Farivar, published by Rutgers University Press.[1] The book explores the history and effects of the Internet in South Korea, Senegal, Estonia and Iran.[2][3]

Farivar says he chose the four nations profiled because "they each represent vastly different experiences when it comes to the Internet".[4] The Atlantic chose the book for its 2011 list of "10 Essential Books for Thought-Provoking Summer Reading".[5]
