Description:
Over the past thirty years, the internet has transformed virtually every area of human activity, social and economic. The bulk of these changes have been positive, allowing people to work, imagine and connect with each other in new ways. The boost to economic activity has been enormous. But along with the benefits have come new risks. Our children can learn and play on the internet, but they can also be bullied there, or unwittingly stumble across extreme pornography. For ordinary citizens, the internet provides an unprecedented opportunity to comment and participate in public discourse; but the same digital platforms providing this opportunity can also be forums for the wide circulation of abusive, defamatory or grossly inaccurate material. And while the internet has created vast new opportunities for businesses and consumers, it has disrupted many traditional forms of economic activity. The result is a rich set of policy challenges for governments.
Paul Fletcher is Australia’s Minister for Communications and has worked on internet policy issues for twenty-five years. In Governing in the Age of the Internet, he outlines the key challenges the internet has posed for governments as they seek to preserve their sovereignty, protect their citizens from harm, and regulate neutrally between traditional and online business models. Yes, the internet has changed everything — and that goes for governing, too.

Sweet Simple Book
Format: Board book
I gave this to parents who are going to start reading to their baby before she is born. It's great for that and for early readers. The illustrations are very nice. I'm pleased with the book.

Bought this as a surprise for my husband, it was not a disappointment.
This is one of the most touchingly sweet books I've ever seen and allows the reader (Dad), to reaffirm his bond and his love every night at bedtime (or anytime really) in a way that not only educates the child, entertains the child, but forms lasting memories for the child. It's the perfect pre-bedtime story, and its great with my 6 month old already. I waited until my husband arrived home from work to make sure he agreed with my assessment, and he actually used the word perfect when describing it. My husband is not an overly emotional man so that says a lot. I even suggested to my husband that we keep this book in very good condition, and when our son has a little one, pass it on to him. It's that amazing!

Such a sweet book and perfect for infant or toddler. I got it for my grandson who is 8 months old and adores being read to. This was a Father's Day gift to my son so he could read it to his little boy. Both of them really like it. Colorful. Simple words. Ample pages. Board Book.

Repeated page, overall great and simple
I really like the simplicity of this book, we bought it for my 9 month old and she loves it! There is only one picture on each page and it is a very simple book so it's great for younger babies. My only issue is that I had a repeated page in my book, but it must have been a misprint since I haven't seen anyone else say they had a repeated page.

Great father's day gift
I bought it for my husband for father's daypl0k from our two years old son.
Sweet and simple book for a father to read to with his baby or toddler.
Each page has a different daddy and baby animal with a simple and short phrase and cute pictures.
My son picks this one out to be read to him from his dad as part of his regular rotation.
I highly recommend
