In Complex Worlds, editors Adrienne P. Lamberti and Anne R. Richards have set themselves a challenging task: to bring together a coherent set of perspectives relating to digital culture while promoting an open-ended flexibility suggested by their preferred term, “digital divergence” (p. 2). The volume’s title evokes the issue confronting academics and professionals: to comprehend not one, but multiple worlds – each complex, evolving and interacting with one another in unexpected and unpredictable ways. In response to this “multifaceted and heterogenous…digital era we are all attempting to navigate” (p. 2), Lamberti and Richards have collected eleven papers that offer multiple lines of inquiry and methodologies in an effort to understand aspects of the transformative nature of digital technology.
