Wired for thought : how the brain is shaping the future of the Internet / Jeffrey M. Stibel ; with the collaboration of Erik Calonius and Peter Delgrosso.
The Internet is more than just a series of interconnected computer networks: it's the first real replication of the human brain outside the human body. To leverage its power, you first need to understand how the Internet has evolved to take on similarities to the brain. This engaging and provocative book provides the answer.
