"The Philosophy of Software: Code and Mediation in the Digital Age" by 
David Berry.

Reviewed by Rob Myers

This book is a critical introduction to code and software that develops 
an understanding of its social and philosophical implications in the 
digital age. Written specifically for people interested in the subject 
from a non-technical background, the book provides a lively and 
interesting analysis of these new media forms. An ambitious book where 
Berry turns his attention from the social relations and ideology of 
software (in "Rip, Mix, Burn", 2008) to the question of what software 
means in itself.
