Revolutionary Algorithms

"Torey Akers is one of only a handful of writers capable of delivering a slim manifesto—a phrase which admittedly shortchanges Revolutionary Algorithms, a book which impresses beyond its page count—packed with this much depth, research, and insight, while also being a joy to read. It's a testament to both the expansiveness of Akers' mind and the careful constraint of her prose. Here, she announces herself as one the sharpest cultural critics at work today, taking on no less than the most consequential social media phenomena of our time with unparalleled brilliance."
