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
