This is a new book by Hal Abelson (a renowned computer scientist and computer science education researcher) and two others that delves into how pervasive use of computing is changing our world. It combines technological and sociological material. The full title is "Blown to Bits: Your Life, Liberty, and Happiness after the Digital Explosion." The book is used in UC Berkeley's "CS 0" introductory/non-majors course. It's a goldmine of material. It's published under a Creative Commons license, so you can buy a hard copy or just download the PDF. I am sure that you will find it valuable if you assign readings for any of the topics we have been discussing over the last few weeks.

Instead, they went on Facebook and mocked her in death.They told State Police detectives they did nothing wrong, had nothing to do with Phoebe killing herself.

“Things like this aren’t supposed to happen in South Hadley,’’ said Darby O’Brien, a high school parent, wondering why the bullies who tormented Phoebe are still in school. “And so instead of confronting the evil among us, the reality that there are bullies roaming the corridors at South Hadley High, people are blaming the victim, looking for excuses why a 15-year-old girl would do this. People are in denial.’’
