{"product_id":"clay-shirky-here-comes-everybody-9780143114949","title":"Here Comes Everybody","description":"An extraordinary exploration of how technology can empower social and political organizers For the first time in history, the tools for cooperating on a global scale are not solely in the hands of governments or institutions. The spread of the internet and mobile phones are changing how people come together and get things done-and sparking a revolution that, as Clay Shirky shows, is changing what we do, how we do it, and even who we are. Here, we encounter a whoman who loses her phone and recruits an army of volunteers to get it back from the person who stole it. A dissatisfied airline passenger who spawns a national movement by taking her case to the web. And a handful of kids in Belarus who create a political protest that the state is powerless to stop. Here Comes Everybody is a revelatory examination of how the wildfirelike spread of new forms of social interaction enabled by technology is changing the way humans form groups and exist within them. A revolution in social organization has commenced, and Clay Shirky is its brilliant chronicler. \"Drawing from anthropology, economic theory and keen observation, [Shirky] makes a strong case that new communication tools are making once-impossible forms of group action possible . . . [an] extraordinarily perceptive new book.\" -Minneapolis Star Tribune \"Mr. Shirky writes cleanly and convincingly about the intersection of technological innovation and social change.\" -New York Observer","brand":"Penguin Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Used - good","offer_id":53437338222934,"sku":"9780143114949-G","price":4.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/5829\/5382\/files\/product_image_9780143114949_1.jpg?v=1777972697","url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/clay-shirky-here-comes-everybody-9780143114949","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
