High-Tech Heretic: Why computers don't belong in the classroom and other reflections by a computer contrarian.

Clifford Stoll


The author punctures the exaggerated benefits of everything from foisting computers on preschoolers to "free" software to computer "help desks" that help no one at all. With droll wit, Stoll focuses on everything from why computers have to be so darned "ugly", to the cultural aftershocks of our high-tech society.
