'Today's musician works online, yet we haven't even begun to plumb the depths of creative collaboration over the Internet. Iowerth's book illuminates why Networked Music Performance is an emerging force: culture and technology become more sophisticated when driven by both social necessity and obviously rich rewards of new musical and cultural opportunities.'
