Opis

Information and communication technology (ICT) has the potential to empower, to connect and to include but, alas, this is not always the case as, at times, it restricts, excludes, and divides. This book explores this paradox and examines ethical and social impacts of ICT. It highlights lessons learnt and those still to be learnt.
