But there are no pictures!

I've just been sent a copy of Networks of Innovation by Ilkka Tuomi to review. This is the paperback version - just published - of the original 2002 book. There seems to have been no attempt to update the text and a brief flick through the graphs and tables seems to confirm that, for this book at least, internet history stopped in 2000. Given that Oxford have taken the decision to publish it now - unchanged - must mean that the premise is still valid. I certainly hope so. There is a puff on the cover from John Seely Brown, who mentions
a brilliant analysis of the innovative processes underlying the creation of both the internet and Linuxso at least it sounds promising. JSB, you will remember (oh yeah?), featured in one of the first ITC shows for which I did the web site edit.
