Today’s buzz words in communication are computer, IT and Internet. But why do we need to communicate with each other? How do computers help in bringing us closer together? What is IT? What is the Internet, and why are we so excited about it? Is this IT revolution equally welcome by everybody? Is our universe actually shrinking due to this revolution? These and similar queries are discussed and answered in this easy-reading book, which is written primarily for educated laypersons without having much scientific back-ground, but with a mind to explore.
