Included in this issue are:

Informatic Bodies and Posthuman Medicine (2000)

..as well as reviews of music, websites, non-fiction, and fiction.

In line with our efforts to foster intellectual community, 
Reconstruction also hosts a message board dedicated to interaction 
between authors and readers, and between readers themselves, hoping to 
affect a more communal approach to, and understanding of, academic 
journals and intellectual thought and action.  Please take the time to 
participate in this experiment in community.

Additionally, submissions for our Spring issue (May 20, 2002) are being 
actively solicited.  

Please see editorial guidelines as published on the site for further 
information regarding contributions to Reconstruction.  All submissions 
must be received by April 15, 2002 to be considered for inclusion in the 
Spring 2002 issue.  Reconstruction is a peer-reviewed journal, soon to 
be indexed in the MLA International Bibliography.
 
We are also currently seeking reviewers: If interested, a short email 
listing qualifications and interests should be mailed to 
reviews-AT-reconstruction.ws.

If you would like to receive our newsletter, with important updates, new 
reviews, and notifications about calls for papers and forthcoming
