Doing Internet Research
Critical Issues and Methods for Examining the Net

Edited by:


December 1998 | 328 pages | SAGE Publications, Inc
The Internet is a medium with great consequences for social and economic life. This book is written to help people discern in what ways it has commanded the public imagination, and the methodological issues that arise when one tries to study and understand the social processes occurring within it. The contributors offer original responses in the search for, and critique of, methods with which to study the Internet and the social, political, economic, artistic, and communicative phenomena occurring within and around it.

Good use of diagrams and tables to support the theory. Personal example used was very useful in reinforcing the theory
