We are in the throes of a technological and cultural revolution, yet the rapid pace of change makes it difficult to understand what's going on. 50 Digital Ideas You Really Need to Know provides a clear path through the misinformation surrounding the technologies that are transforming the world.

Leading technology writer Tom Chatfield provides a sure-footed guide to the seminal digital phenomena of our time--from the basic browsers that we use to surf the web, to the implications for our own privacy. From plumbing the depths of the deep web that represents well over 99 percent of the internet and remains inaccessible to most search engines, to digital distribution that threatens to sweep away entire industries, this is an indispensable road map for our journey to a digital future.
