Lawrence Lessig's Free Culture
I just read Lawrence Lessig's book Free Culture How Big Media Uses Technology and the Law to Lock Down Culture and Control Creativity. This book is VERY important, and VERY good. I am not much of a book reviewer, but I do know a great book when I read it. I couldn't stop reading this book; I haven't had time to surf the web, listen to music, blog, podcast, watch TV or anything this past week, but I made time to finish this book once I started reading it. If you've never cared about the public domain, or if you have never given second thought to how our culture is made, PLEASE read this book. If you want a history lesson on the subject of intellectual property rights and the United States Constitution, PLEASE read this book. If you just care about freedom, PLEASE read this book. If creativity or innovation is important to you, PLEASE read this book. Lawrence argues articulately and with passion, citing countless examples, and clearly details, while offering solutions, what is happening to our our culture, our public domain, and our future.

This book is alarming and informative. Read this book, and you will have your eyes appropriately widened to this very important issue.
