The Future of Reputation — Now Online for Free!
posted by Daniel Solove
I’m very happy to announce that my publisher is allowing me to post a copy of The Future of Reputation: Gossip, Rumor, and Privacy on the Internet free online. Of course, I’d love it if you bought a copy, but if I can’t convince you to buy it, then I hope you’ll at least read it for free online. There really is a free lunch after all! And if you read the book and don’t like it, well . . . you get what you pay for.
I think that it is great that Yale University Press is allowing me to do this. I hope more publishers decide to let their authors do this in the future — especially academic presses, whose mission is not just to make a profit but to help spread ideas.

Awesome.
Make your link to the amazon sale page more prominent (put it in your post!) so that ppl looking to purchase it have an easier time.
