“The Internet for Girls: Connecting Girls With Math, Science and Technology” (forthcoming book) “There are many books out there now to introduce people to the Internet, guides for parents and teachers and kids, but I didn’t see one that really encouraged girls to take an interest in what was behind the Internet - to truly become creators of new technology, rather than simply its users. Or to encourage them to stand up for their own rights to learn and to know and to understand technology.”
