- The code of the site that generates this digital edition may have different terms; this page governs the book text as read here.
Why open
A book that argues you must read organizations before installing technology could not hide from the reader behind a paywall. Publishing it under an open license is consistent with the argument: knowledge improves when it circulates, is questioned, and is tested in other contexts.
