Deeper: Adventures on the Net Book

Deeper is a record of John Seabrook's wide-eyed romance, and eventual disillusionment, with the brave new world of cyberspace. Unlike most books on the topic, this one features little in the way of pontification: Seabrook is too busy absorbing the disappointments of online life, such as his first flame (which became the subject of a New Yorker article) and an abortive attempt at cybersex. This sane, funny, and charming book really does capture the lighter-than-air feeling one gets during an initial brush with new technology--and the morning-after feeling that follows.Read More

  • Product Description

    With a winning combination of bemusement, frustration, and affection, John Seabrook takes us along on his personal journey from "newbie" to old hand in cyberspace. Along the way, he sheds light on the history of the Internet and how it evolved from a geeky hobby into an important part of mainstream popular culture, and in engaging, often hilarious descriptions he de mystifies this new, ever-expanding world. For anyone thinking about getting on-line, for computer hacks interested in comparing notes, and even for nodrivers on the information highway, Deeper is a one-of-a-kind guidebook, at once informative, evocative, and beautifully written.
