About this title

Synopsis

This volume examines the complex, contradictory discourses of hypertext. Using theoretical material from cultural theory, radical and border pedagogies, and technology criticism, the text discusses three primary ways hypertext is articulated: as automated book (technical communication), as virtual commodity (online databases), and as environment for constructing and exploring multiple subject positions (postmodern hypertext in composition and literature). I would recommend the entire book to researchers and academics who recognize the need to integrate new technologies into our classrooms and pedagogies. - Technical Communication

Review

"Johnson-Eilola has started this much needed dialogue between global and local inquiries, a dialogue that ultimately may change what academics and industry people respectively create and produce in hypertext environments."-IEEE Transactions in Professional Communication

"Nostalgic Angels successfully speaks to both the initiated and the uninitiated on the articulation and rearticulation of one mode of communication in cyberculture, hypertext. It is a refreshing and reassuring book that blends postmodern and composition theory."-Resource Center for Cyberculture Studies
