A spirited tour of the wrong side of the Global Village's electronic tracks. From the lava-lamp gloom of a larcenous suburban fifteen-year-old's bedroom to the virus-ridden bootleg software arcades of Bangkok, they carve a highly readable arc through the criminal and quasi-criminal bohemias of the Information Age. Hardcover, 247 pp., illustrated jacket. Mild wear, previous owner's name on front pastedown endpaper otherwise bright and clean throughout, tight binding, nice jacket.
