Rezension zu „Googlization of Everything “
"An important book. While a number of excellent histories about the emergence of Google have been published ... few writers have tried to take a comprehensive and critical look at the wider impact on society of Google's vast ambition 'to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful.'... Vaidhyanathan's perspective as an East Coast academic outside the group-think of Silicon Valley is a valuable one. He is a clear writer with an engaging voice, and a good guide for this peek behind the wizard's curtain."--San Jose Mercury News "This book is in no way an attack on Google but more like a parent asking a child, 'What do you want to do with your life?' then going through all the concerns one by one. Strongly recommended."--Library Journal "Siva Vaidhyanathan ... thinks we've become far too dependent on an arrogant, barely regulated company that gathers and stored tons of personal information about us."--Seattle Post-Intelligencer "A stimulating and controversial book."--Times Higher Education
