Arranged in three sections, this resource for secondary school students provides an introduction to the computer's impact on society. The first section surveys historical methods of recording and storing information: clay tablets, papyrus, and books. The second section describes how computers work and ways they can be used. Also considered are the effects of computer technology on medicine, space travel, shopping, traffic control, and money. The final section discusses some of computer technology's potential problems, such as invasion of privacy, depersonalization, development of a police state, computer crime, and a machine-controlled society. A glossary of computer terms is included. (LP)

The Server

Pages : 454
Book Description
A cutting†‘edge media history on a perennially fascinating topic, which attempts to answer the crucial question: Who is in charge, the servant or the master?†‹ Though classic servants like the butler or the governess have largely vanished, the Internet is filled with servers: web, ftp, mail, and others perform their daily drudgery, going about their business noiselessly and unnoticed. Why then are current†‘day digital drudges called servers? Markus Krajewski explores this question by going from the present back to the Baroque to study historical aspects of service through various perspectives, be it the servants’ relationship to architecture or their function in literary or scientific contexts. At the intersection of media studies, cultural history, and literature, this work recounts the gradual transition of agency from human to nonhuman actors to show how the concept of the digital server stems from the classic role of the servant.
