Digital Renaissance

Depending who's talking, digital technology has been a boon for the increasing sophistication and economic opportunities in pop culture--or a contributor to the downfall of industries and the demise of morals in society. In this audiobook, Waldfogel leverages data, economic theory, and suitable analogies to argue that the reality is much more complicated. Narrator Mike Chamberlain's projective and slightly nasal voice serves as the right medium to convey these points. His style works well for explaining complex ideas such as theoretical economic models and navigating complicated arguments, especially those including numbers. The result is a meaningful and critical exploration of how technology changes society in unforeseen ways. L.E. � AudioFile 2019, Portland, Maine
