Two decades ago,
changed the way the world thought about the Web and Internet. While everyone else was in awe of “websites” and "dot coms," Don Tapscott was among the first people to argue that the Internet would fully transform the nature of business and government. It goes without saying that his predictions were spot on.
Now, in this new edition of his classic work, the
bestselling author provides topical updates with a sweeping new analysis of how the Internet has changed business and society in the last 20 years, covering:
When Tapscott was writing the original edition in 1994, he was living in a world where Netscape had been just introduced as go-to browser, websites didn’t do transactions, dial-up was the only way to get online, and mobile phones sightings were rare. Google, YouTube, eBay, Facebook, Twitter? They didn’t exist.
Preserving all the original text as it appeared 20 years ago, this new edition includes detailed essays ending each chapter—Tapscott’s highly informed reflections on his predictions, along with new forecasts of where the digital world is headed.
“1994 was a good year. Netscape Navigator and
. With this anniversary edition, Tapscott provides lucid insights for the next stage of these amazing times.”
“Brilliant. Governments can learn from
how to democratize access to prosperity, minimize social and economic divides and transform government and democracy for the 21st Century.”
“We’re now into three decades of terrific insights and analysis from Don Tapscott about the digital revolution! Read this book!”
