Books by Bruce (University of California Bimber

This book explores how people participate in public life through organizations in a time when digital media can make organizations seem irrelevant. The authors examine three of the largest organizations in the United States. In each, people use technology when they participate, but technology does not make them participate more.

This book provides a comprehensive evaluation of the Internet in American democracy. The author places the contemporary information revolution in historical context. This was the first book published at the time about the Internet and politics to combine historical analysis, case studies of political events, and survey analysis.
