Meer oor hierdie e-boek

Internet History explores the captivating story of the internet, tracing its evolution from a Cold War experiment into the pervasive global network we know today. The book examines key technological advancements, social impacts, and political forces that have shaped this transformative technology. One intriguing fact is that the early internet, known as ARPANET, was conceived as a decentralized communication system to withstand potential attacks, highlighting its initial focus on resilience.

Another significant development was Tim Berners-Lee's invention of the World Wide Web, which democratized access to online information and paved the way for e-commerce and social media.

The book adopts a chronological approach, meticulously dissecting the internet's development across three pivotal stages. It begins with the ARPANET era, moves into the rise of the World Wide Web and the commercial internet, and concludes with the age of high-speed connections and mobile computing. This structured examination, supported by primary and secondary sources, makes Internet History particularly valuable for students, researchers, and anyone seeking a comprehensive understanding of the digital landscape. The book emphasizes the constant interplay between technological innovation, societal adoption, and internet regulation, offering readers insights into ongoing debates surrounding data privacy and technology policy.
