Yochai Benkler's "Wealth of Networks"

The Wealth of Networks, for me, is a fascinating study into spontaneous order within a market Economy. It is Libertarian to the core and you can tell Benkler's enthusiasm for the "Networked Information" economy is well founded. It's almost like it's a point-by-point affirmation of Human Action set against the technological backdrop of our still-fledgling internet. I'm not finished reading it yet but he gives a nice outline of his ideas on Ted:

I couldn't find any mention of the book in a quick search here so I thought I'd share with you enlightened folk. Multiple downloadable format provided here free of charge: http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/wealth_of_networks/Main_Page
