The Best Writing From The Atlantic’s Technology Channel 2012 is an anthology that showcases the site's kaleidoscopic approach to covering the tech scene. This isn't a book merely about technologies—it’s one about the ideas that animate them, the people who create them, and the users who transform them. You'll find everything from an exclusive account of the technology that powered the Obama campaign, to an investigation into what makes a stock photo; memes to space; drones to abortion; philosophy to animated GIFs.
