The book investigates the ways in which the mobile telephone has transformed societies around the world, bringing both opportunities and challenges. At a time when knowledge and truth are increasingly contested, the book asks how mobile technology has changed
the ways in which people create, disseminate, and access knowledge.</p>

While this is not a computing-history book per se, it does trace the historical use of mobile telephony in more recent times, especially in recent social transformations. I think that it will be an interesting and easy read for the SIGCIS community.</p>
