For the full review of Danielle Citron's book, Hate Crimes in Cyberspace, visit The Guardian's website.

"Hell, Jean-Paul Sartre famously wrote, in his play No Exit, is other people. There sometimes seems to be a river of hate on the internet, flowing steadily through different social media; people are often hurt, and there is no obvious end to it. In this book, Danielle Citron, an American law professor, proposes, with quiet authority, how we, as digital citizens, law-makers, internet intermediaries and educators, can make a change."
