Abstract

If we are to learn about the impact of computers and networks on society, it will be necessary to address issues from broad cultural-historical perspectives, such as has been done for print culture by those in the 'histoire du livre' tradition. There are paradoxes faced by users of the Internet that have direct implications on their conceptions of the organization of knowledge. Perceptions of knowledge structures may play roles in searching habits or in deciding about he overall appropriateness of a Net search. The Net has been compared to a world brain and is here placed in the context of an early conception of a world brain
