This highly acclaimed collection of witty, provocative, and engaging essays surveys the effects of electronic text on the arts and letters. Insisting that the move from book to screen gives cause for optimism, not apocalyptic despair, the author proclaims that 'electronic expression has come not to destroy the Western arts but to fulfill them.'
