Featuring the author, Glenn Reynolds, Beauchamp Brogan Distinguished Professor of Law, University of Tennessee, author of Instapundit.com; and comments by Henry Farrell, Assistant Professor of Political Science and International Affairs, George Washington University, Contributor to crookedtimber.org.
There was a time in the not-too-distant past when large companies and powerful governments reigned supreme over the little guy. But new technologies are empowering individuals like never before, and the Davids of the world--the amateur journalists, musicians, and owners of small businesses--are suddenly making a huge economic and social impact.
In An Army of Davids, author Glenn Reynolds, the man behind the immensely popular Instapundit.com, provides an in-depth, big-picture view of a world where the small guys matter more and more. Reynolds explores the birth and growth of the individual's surprisingly strong influence in arts and entertainment, anti-terrorism, nanotech and space research, and much more.

In this book forum from the Cato Institute, Instapundit.com blogger Glenn Reynolds discusses his book "An Army of Davids". He argues that the internet and blogs are creating ways for the common man to strike back at the media and the government. Henry Farrell disagrees with Reynolds, suggesting that the blogosphere is only representational of nerdy, upper middle class, educated, white males.
