Summary: A good collection of feminist writings
Review: This anthology from Australian, Asian and other international writers covers feminist writings with a diversity of areas including connectivity, critique and creativity. The book includes mostly strong feminist views, with compelling argument against the patriarchy of the Internet and related technologies, although some of the writings may shock a few of the more conservative readers. It is fairly academic in some parts, and a good knowledge of current media theory may help the reader as will knowledge of current technology. I'd recommend the book for anyone currently studying either a technology or media related course, or interested in these issues. You may not agree with some of the writings, but it will make you think and appreciate the feminist point of view in the male dominated world of the Internet.
