I taught the course during the initial part of Covid, so the material ended up not being organized - split between different systems. But here are some of the books/papers that I sourced class readings from

* Brian Winston - Media technology and society a history: from the telegraph to the Internet, Routledge (1998)

* James Gleick - The Information A History, a Theory, a Flood (2011, Pantheo)

* Michael G. Raymer - The Silicon Web: Physics for the Internet Age, CRC Press (2009)

* Simon Singh - The Code Book: How to Make It, Break It, Hack It, Crack It (2003)
