Everything Is Miscellaneous

Everything Is Miscellaneous, livro novo do David Weinberger

“The world is messy, like it or not, and it’s only going to get messier as the Web destroys rules and rule-makers. You can either complain about the chaos and wish for the good old days of order, or you can buy this book and understand why delirious disorder will soon make us all smarter.” — Chris Anderson, editor in chief of Wired and author of The Long Tail”

David Weinberger attacks the complexity of the real world, not by making it simple, but by making it clear. Once he explains how thingscan be in more than one place at a time-and make sense-you’ll never lookat a humble bookshelf or store shelf the same way again.”
— Esther Dyson, author of Release 2.0

“Everything Is Miscellaneous is a rare and mesmerizing mix: one the one
hand, it’s an essential guide to latest information age trends, one that
will be extremely useful for businesses and consumers alike. But the
book is much more than that as well: it’s a probing and profound
exploration of how we create meaning in the world.”
— Steven Johnson, author of The Ghost Map and Everything Bad Is Good For
You

“From how information is organised, to the nature of knowledge and how
meaning is determined, this book is a profound contribution to
understanding the impact of the digital revolution.”
— Richard Sambrook, director, BBC Global News

“Just when I thought I understood the world, David Weinberger turns it
upside down–and rightside up–again. Everything Is Miscellaneous
explains the radical changes happening in digital information–and
therefore in society as a whole.”
— Jimmy Wales, founder of Wikipedia and chair, Wikia.com
