Internet considers the social and moral implications of life in a 'global village'. What is the Internet, and who uses it? What is the World Wide Web, and how does it differ from the Internet? This book also examines the dramatic impact of the Internet upon our lives, whether we use it for work, education, entertainment or shopping. It looks at the advantages - for example, the freedom of information and breaking down of language barriers - and at the disadvantages - the easy access to pornography, the dangers of chat lines and saturation advertising.
