520			_aWhittle draws on his experience in the computer field as well as his knowledge of philosophy, sociology, business, economics, law, and ethics to make solid connections between practice and theory. He paints a fascinating portrait of cyberspace as a realm of vast possibilities, particularly in providing a means for building meaningful online communities. However, because cyberspace allows users of online communications new freedoms, such as the ability to disguise their identity, we must take care in establishing some guidelines in this emerging terrain. In Cyberspace, Whittle offers valuable suggestions to this end, all the while making the myriad issues at stake understandable and intriguing to both newcomers and veterans of online communication.
