Soon, we may well feel that voting without searching for information on the internet is as irresponsible as making a major purchase without comparison shopping, or signing a binding contract without reading it. Google and Democracy makes a compelling, and reassuring, case for that future.' - Richard N. Engstrom, Associate Director of the Institute for Governmental Service and Research, University of Maryland
