Using its interdisciplinary approach, Informationalism is a major contribution to our understanding of the interaction of technology and its economic impact on contemporary life. In achieving this, it is one of the break-through scholarly works of the 21st Century. It educates about the dynamics of the gains-in-profits vs. the exploitation-of-surplus-labor in the production process within the current Age-of-Information management arrangement. In doing this, it also provides an historical analysis to compare the two distinct modes (management and production) in the systems of the past Industrial and the contemporary Age-of-Information structures. This is accompanied by an incisive critique of the surplus-labor exploitation mechanisms in both periods. Dr. Charles S. J. White, American University, Washington, D.C.
