Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Arguing that one way of understanding cyberspace is as an attempt to realize an electronic version of heaven, this book begins with the medieval definition of the world as spiritual space. The author traces the emergence of modern physics with its emphasis on physical space, and then presents her thesis: that cyberspace, an outgrowth of modern science, nevertheless represents a return to medieval, spiritual concerns.
Arguing that one way of understanding cyberspace is as an attempt to realize an electronic version of heaven, this book begins with the medieval definition of the world as spiritual space. The author traces the emergence of modern physics with its emphasis on physical space, and then presents her thesis: that cyberspace, an outgrowth of modern science, nevertheless represents a return to medieval, spiritual concerns. Cyberspace posits the existence of a genuine yet immaterial world in which people are invited to commune in a non-bodily fashion, just as medieval theology brought intangible souls together in heaven.
