Contrasting the lives of two men, this work examines those that have access to information and those that do not. It surveys the range of information and analyzes the barriers that keep people information poor: geography, tyranny, illiteracy, and psychological blinders.

William Wresch chairs the computing and mathematics department at the University of Wisconsin, Stevens Point. He has published five books and software on using computers to teach effective writing. His experience as a Fulbright Fellow helping the new University of Namibia design its computer curriculum sparked this book. His essay on Africa and the Internet appeared in Internet World.
