Abstract

LOSING THE NEWS: Future of the News That Feeds Democracy, by Alex S. Jones (Oxford University, $24.95.) Jones affords a glimpse of the void we'll inhabit if the fundamental task of newspapers withers away with the paper they're printed on. INHERENT VICE, by Thomas Pynchon (Penguin Press, $27.95.) Psychedelic yet intellectually rigorous, this is detective fiction that winks at the era of the private eye and foresees the public eye that never blinks. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
