About The Book
Jim Cashel shares his predictions of what may be the biggest event in human history, and it will happen in just the next few years. For the first time, affordable broadband will reach even the poorest and most remote of global citizens, giving access to information, communications, identity authentication, government programs, global philanthropy, online banking, telehealth, distance education, and other powerful services heretofore impossible. Cashel speaks with the major players driving the broadband revolution and travels to the most remote corners of the globe to consider the changes in our world about to take place.

Raves and Reviews
"[Cashel] provides a searching discussion of the many ways—financial, medical, political, and communicative, just to name a few—in which broadband will positively alter the socioeconomic landscapes of the beneficiaries. In addition, the author assesses the challenges, particularly the use of the internet as a tool of extremist hate and political oppression. Finally, he presents a series of thoughtful solutions to these impediments, and a kind of road map for governments and investors alike to accelerate the process and clear inevitable hurdles." - Kirkus Reviews
