Simon Lindgren is Professor of Sociology at Umeå University, Sweden. He researches digital culture with a focus on how new media audiences navigate the border landscape between the new potentials for participation and activism on the one hand, and the risks for exclusion and exploitation on the other. Simon is actively taking part in developing theoretical as well as methodological tools for analyzing discursive and social network aspects of the emerging new media landscape. He has published internationally on themes like hacktivism, digital piracy, citizen journalism, subcultural creativity, popular culture, and visual politics.

In her careful reading of Lewis and his critics, Hilder provides a nuanced and balanced approach, showing how often Lewis subverted the usual stereotypes, giving us a new understanding of Lewis's fiction and a new way to think about gender - a viable Third Way. (David C. Downing, R. W. Schlosser Professor of English at Elizabethtown College, author of Planets in Peril: A Critical Study of C.S. Lewis's Ransom Trilogy) At long last, a serious study of the Cosmic Trilogy's central theme, and one which is sufficiently thorough and nuanced to bring out the radical implications of Lewis's views on gender. Carefully, thoughtfully, insightfully, Hilder moves beyond the Pavlovian superficiality of so many previous ventures into this field. An important and valuable contribution. (Dr. Michael Ward, St Peter's College, Oxford, author of Planet Narnia: The Seven Heavens in the Imagination of C.S. Lewis)
