This is the first interdisciplinary exploration of the
philosophical foundations of the Web, a new area of inquiry that
has important implications across a range of domains.
* Contains twelve essays that bridge the fields of philosophy,
cognitive science, and phenomenology
* Tackles questions such as the impact of Google on intelligence
and epistemology, the philosophical status of digital objects,
ethics on the Web, semantic and ontological changes caused by the
Web, and the potential of the Web to serve as a genuine cognitive
extension
* Brings together insightful new scholarship from well-known
analytic and continental philosophers, such as Andy Clark and
Bernard Stiegler, as well as rising scholars in ‘digital
native’ philosophy and engineering
* Includes an interview with Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the
Web
