A new educational focus is emerging in some institutions of higher education. These schools are taking an interdisciplinary approach to educating tomorrow’s information professionals, by mixing together science, technology, social science, and design. These new programs are beginning to educate students in these new professions – not as programmers or coders or software developers, but as professional analysts, architects, and creators of our planet’s critical information infrastructure.

Information Nation on the Kindle
I'm excited to say that Information Nation is now available for purchase in the Amazon Kindle store: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004WOZ2IU. I'm afraid there is not much cost savings. I'm not sure that the publisher has the pricing model worked out, and I think they are experimenting a bit to see how Kindle sales will affect physical book sales. But... If you are in a huge hurry to read the book (and who wouldn't be!) you can have it wirelessly delivered to your Kindle in seconds. Enjoy!
