Description

We are often told that we are "living in an information society" or that we are "information workers." But what exactly do these claims mean, and how might they be verified?

In this important methodological study, Alistair S. Duff cuts through the rhetoric to get to the bottom of the "information society thesis." Wide-ranging in coverage, this study will be of interest to scholars in information science, communication and media studies and social theory.

It is a key text for the newly-unified specialism of information society studies, and an indispensable guide to the future of this discipline.
