"If all those Generation Z and proto-Singularity kids reading Doctorow's Little Brother also find their way to Content, this book may well become a classic." www.MattSelznick.com "Doctorow here proves he's smart, funny, and good at accessibly boiling down issues he's passionate about ... a pleasure to read, not to mention thought-provoking."
