Free Culture

Lessig announces an impending book (I don't always agree with him--he oversimplifies some crucial IP concepts, I think--but I admire the scope, range, and energy of his work a great deal):

On March 25, Penguin will be releasing my new book, Free Culture. (Hmm, you'd think a book by "Penguin" about "Free Culture" would be released ...). All reviews (both good (Jonathan Schwartz in the American Lawyer) and bad (Stephen Manes of Forbes)) will be collected on a soon to be announced site, along with totally objective reviews of at least some of the reviews provided by the author (me). I'll be doing a couple events around the book. The first is next Tuesday at the 92d Street Y in New York. The day the book goes on sale, I'll be debating James DeLong of the Progress and Freedom Foundation at the National Press Club in Washington, DC.
