Mahwah,<br \/>\n          N.J.: Lawrence Erlbaum, 2004.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Inman&#8217;s monograph is structurally rugged in the sense that he is explicit<br \/>\nabout the function and form of each section.&nbsp; The book begins with a<br \/>\ndefinition of computers and writing that stacks up according to real and virtual<br \/>\nconferences (a listing of C&amp;W conferences, locations, and dates), professional<br \/>\norganizations and initiatives (ACW, Netoric Project, MOOs, OWLs, and listservs),<br \/>\nand publishing ventures and products (<i>Computers and Writing<\/i> (1983), <i><br \/>\nKairos<\/i>) (3).<\/p>\n<p>Late in chapter one, Inman introduces something like an abbreviated<br \/>\nbibliographic essay in an effort to account for the historical boundaries of the<br \/>\n&quot;cyborg era,&quot; a period he identifies as running roughly from 1979-2000, a period<br \/>\nthroughout which computers and writing scholarship resonated with the cyborg<br \/>\nwriting Haraway describes, where political agency weighs heavily, taking into<br \/>\nconsideration individuals, technologies and contexts.&nbsp; Cyborg era, then,<br \/>\ngets treated as a god-term; Inman contends that it exceeds the era designations<br \/>\ncommon in the titles of a long list of works about writing technologies, the<br \/>\ninternet, and the surge in information economies.<\/p>\n<p>The general structure of the book follows a series of cyborg designations:<br \/>\ncyborg era, cyborg history (1960-1979; other technologies, resistance, women,<br \/>\nand minorities), cyborg narratives (1979-2000; influence, textual transition,<br \/>\nand pedagogical evolution), cyborg literacy (workplace, school, internets, and<br \/>\nintegration), cyborg pedagogy (shifting materialism, discomfort, design<br \/>\nstructures, minority empowerment), and cyborg responsibility.&nbsp; Cyborg<br \/>\nresponsibility is Inman&#8217;s culminating argument.&nbsp; With it he introduces the<br \/>\nfollowing edicts: 1. Remember individuals in any technology and\/or<br \/>\ntechnology-adoption decision; 2. Actively seek and promote diversity; 3.<br \/>\nArticulate and model resistance; and 4. Participate in the design of<br \/>\ntechnologies. Toward implementation, Inman invokes Rogers&#8217; <i>Diffusion of<br \/>\nInnovations<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p>The ending sections of each chapter introduce the computers and writing<br \/>\nroster, a who&#8217;s who of the computers and writing &quot;community&quot; with photos and<br \/>\npage-length answers to a set of Inman&#8217;s question about how did you become<br \/>\nactive, what project influenced you, what&#8217;s the most important aspect of the<br \/>\n&quot;community,&quot; what worries you about the C&amp;W community, what&#8217;s the best lesson,<br \/>\nand why do you choose to be active in it. In an effort to define computers and<br \/>\nwriting, Inman also introduces a definitional montage&#8211;an oddly designed spread<br \/>\nof voices from people who identify with the field.&nbsp; <\/p>\n<p>^emphasis on individuals (user-centered rather than technology-centered<br \/>\ndecisions) (278)<br \/>\n^degree of theorization in adopting Haraway&#8217;s version of the cyborg (276)<\/p>\n<p>&quot;We have to realize, however, that terms like <i>field, discipline, subfield,<br \/>\nsubdiscipline,<\/i> and <i>community<\/i> are not interchangeable, as they each<br \/>\nbring forward distinct values and implications.&nbsp; Terming <i>computers and<br \/>\nwriting<\/i> a field, for instance, suggests that it has an established unique<br \/>\nbody of scholarship and that a number of scholars are engaged in its work,<br \/>\ndeveloping new scholarship themselves that advances knowledge in the field&quot; (2).<br \/>\n^Consider this alongside Lauer&#8217;s notion of a dappled discipline and especially<br \/>\nher division of audience into expert-keepers of the epistemic court, the general<br \/>\npublic, and those who identify with the field but to don&#8217;t keep up with the<br \/>\nscholarship either as readers or writers.<\/p>\n<dl>\n<dt>Related sources:<\/dt>\n<dd>Haraway, Donna. &quot;A Cyborg Manifesto: Science, Technology, and<br \/>\nSocialist-Feminism in the Late Twentieth Century.&quot; <i>Simians, Cyborgs and<br \/>\nWomen: The Reinvention of Nature<\/i>.
