Review title: Berglund Center for Internet Studies Review by Jeffrey Barlow
Product review: Unfortunately, I find myself as a reviewer untechnothrilled and far from riveted. There is an common phenomenon in American publishing, where a writer who polishes his craft by writing commercially unsuccessful pieces finally hits it big, as did Brown with The Da Vinci Code, and his publishers gleefully exploit their rights to his early books and plaster the market with them. That appears to be the case with this book. In addition to being just too dated to tell us much about the Internet, the plot is so muddled and the characters so one-dimensional that I find it difficult even to summarize the work... Throughout, I learned little except that the NSA has a lot of computers and apparently doesn't do a very good job of assessing the honesty or even sanity of its employees, both major and minor...For a full review see Interface, Volume 4, Issue 1.
