2.0 out of 5 stars
A collection of 1993-94 essays without thematic unity.,
By Manuel Castells, Berkeley, California (Berkeley, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Critical Education in the New Information Age (Critical Perspectives Series: A Book Series Dedicated to Paulo Freire) (Paperback)
This is a collection of interesting, but largely unrelated, papers from a conference in Barcelona in 1994, which do not present a coherent analysis, and only marginally treat education in relationship to information technology. The title is misleading, and Castells is not the editor, but simply one of the contributors, writing on a topic alien to education. The reader from Atlanta writing a review on this site is absolutely right. Do not expect a book. Some of the articles, particularly the one by Freire, could be of your interest.

1.0 out of 5 stars
nb! translation of 1994 Spanish original,
By A Customer
This review is from: Critical Education in the New Information Age (Critical Perspectives Series: A Book Series Dedicated to Paulo Freire) (Paperback)
This is not really a "1999" book, in case anyone is looking for the latest from Castells--rather it offers a translation of a collection of essays published in Spanish five years ago (and written a year or two before that, judging from the references). One would think this information should be part of the bibliographic description of the title.
