(REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Internet In The Middle East: Global Expectations And Local Imaginations In Kuwait (Suny Series in Computer-Mediated Communication) (Paperback)

Dr. Wheeler's analysis of the impact of the internet on Islamic culture is sparklingly intelligent. She delivers profound and detailed information on the topic, while at the same time drawing the reader into a dynamic and energized discourse. This is a must-read for anyone interested in Mid-East Studies, Women's Studies, Internet Studies, or even more broadly, for anyone interested in the contemporary socio-political global environment.
