Momo Sapiens, or the brain caught in flagrante delicto of irrationality
Jacques Perriault
Access to Online Knowledge
It is now possible to research and organise information and study online, through the Internet and with the help of satellites. However, the euphoric claims made for e-learning in the past, and the posturing strategies of telecommunications operators, were followed by a profound feeling of disillusion.

Jacques Perriault teaches media and communications studies at the University of Paris-X-Nanterre.
