Zusatztext
Through the combination of their studies conducted over 17 years, the authors provide a novel and nuanced perspective on the changing ICTs in Australian homes. In this panoramic yet detailed account, we see the reconfiguring of domestic space, re-evaluations of technology over time, strategies to re-domesticate ICTS, and the ongoing parent-child re-negotiations of children's use of digital devices. This is a thought-provoking book with which the reader can engage.
