Lessig is telling me to read this before picking a side !! What has intrigued him, this book matters the most in the lasr decade of his life. So its the no#1 book in the last ten yrs !!

Benkler's book is out

Yochai Benkler's book, The Weath of Networks, is out. This is -- by far -- the most important and powerful book written in the fields that matter most to me in the last ten years. If there is one book you read this year, it should be this. The book has a wiki; it can be downloaded as a pdf for free under a Creative Commons license; or it can be bought at places like Amazon.

Read it. Understand it. You are not serious about these issues -- on either side of these debates -- unless you have read this book.
