Sad that MIT Press recognizes the contributions of STS, Communication,  
Law, technology and culture
but sociology is not mentioned. We should protest leaving us out

>> The MIT Press Information Society Series -- An Interdisciplinary   
>> Series on Technology, Law, and Society
>> Series Editors, Laura DeNardis and Michael Zimmer
>>
>> We are delighted to announce the formation of the MIT Press   
>> Information Society Series – an interdisciplinary series on   
>> technology, law, and society.  The Information Society Series will   
>> address the social, legal, and policy implications of the Internet   
>> and new information technologies and will especially feature works   
>> from the growing global ranks of interdisciplinary scholars in   
>> information schools; communications departments; science,   
>> technology, and society programs; and programs in law, technology,   
>> and culture.
>>
>> We are now accepting book proposals for the series.  Preference   
>> will be given to monographs rather than edited volumes and books   
>> that are interdisciplinary, normative, and global in scope.    Book  
>>  proposals should include: 1) a prospectus (brief description,   
>> outstanding features and uniqueness of work, audience and market   
>> considerations, status of book, and recommended reviewers); 2) a   
>> detailed table of contents; 3) sample chapters; and 4) the author's  
>>  curriculum vitae.  Please submit completed proposals to   
>> laura.denardis at yale.edu and zimmerm at uwm.edu.
>>
>> Thanks, Laura and Michael
