Jeff Jarvis: Public Parts

I have this book on my desk, so was interested to see what someone else had said about it:

Martin de Saulles, principal lecturer in information management, University of Brighton, is reading Jeff Jarvis’ Public Parts: How Sharing in the Digital Age Improves the Way We Work and Live(Simon and Schuster, 2011). “Jarvis presents an intelligent counter to some of the uninformed fear-mongering over online privacy and shows how individuals and society can benefit from greater information sharing. His tweets and blog posts about the side-effects of his prostate cancer treatment may not be to all tastes, but he shows how the kindness of internet strangers helped him and fellow sufferers.”
