Description

Montalbano quickly slammed the trunk shut and sat down on top of it. When the beam from Livia's torch shone on his face, he automatically smiled. 'What's in the trunk?' Livia asked. 'Nothing. It's empty'. How could he possibly have told her there was a corpse inside?

Awards

Shortlisted for CWA International Dagger 2010.

Reviews

aA fascinating survey of the digital age [and] an eye-opening paean to possibility.aa"The Boston Globe" aDrawing from anthropology, economic theory, and keen observation, [Shirky] makes a strong case that new communications tools are making once-impossible forms of group action possible . . . [An] extraordinarily perceptive new book.a a"Minneapolis Star Tribune"
