📘 The world and Wikipedia

by Andrew Dalby

Wikipedia has emerged as the reference source that most of us turn to most of the time. But how much do we know about it? And is it good enough? As mass collaboration gathers pace, this timely book examines what our dependence on one online encylopedia means now and in the future. Starting with a brief history of encyclopedias up to 2001 and covering the astonishing expansion of Wikipedia from then on, *The World and Wikipedia* looks at why we hate Wikipedia but still use it, and why we love it. It examines the people who wiki, cybercreation and wikivoyeurism, and draws its own conclusions on why you should trust Wikipedia... and why you shouldn't.—Jacket

Books like Wikipedia, 3.5 million articles and counting

📘 Wikipedia

by Dan O'Sullivan

This online encyclopedia can be seen as the 21st century’s version of earlier historical attempts to gather the world’s knowledge into one place – this unique book offers a description of some of these earlier attempts. O’Sullivan follows with a thorough analysis of Wikipedia itself, suggesting on how to approach and contribute to the site and what can be gained by using it. Written in an accessible style, the author takes a socio-historical approach, arguing that by looking at communities of practice in the past we can come to understand the radical, even political, nature of Wikipedia.
