The most important commodity of the new millennium will be information. In the 21st century, success in life depends not just on who you know, but on what you know about who you know, and what you know who knows about what you know about him or her.
The main tool of this dawning Age of Information is the computer. It has already invaded virtually every corner of our lives, from the corporate workstation to the spare bedroom. In the process, society is splitting into two distinct camps: people who are enthusiastic about the new information technology and people who are enthusiastic about moving to Outer Mongolia.
In this new humour collection, Leacock Medal-winner John Levesque explores cyberspace, inner space and other frontiers of daily life. This book is neither a ringing affirmation nor a passionate denunciation of the way we live. Instead, it asks an all-important question: Is there an instruction manual for this thing?
