description: "In this insightful and readable volume, Landow explores the relationship between contemporary literary and social theory and the latest advances in computer software."--Voice Literary Supplement. "A useful book for understanding the effect technology is having on scholarship."--Semiotic Review of Books. "Landow['s]... presentation is measured, experiential, lucid, moderate, and sensible. He merely points out that the concept `hypertext' lets us test some concepts associated with critical theory, and gracefully shows how the technology is contributing to reconfigurations of text, author, narrative, and (literary) education."--Post Modern Culture. "Good news for teachers who are not too sensitive about their intellectual authority... Bad news for print culture."--Times Literary Supplement
