Algorithms can shape how we are retreated, what we know, who we connect with and what we encounter. As they continue to spread throughout our software dense and data rich social world, this book reflects on the power of these decision-making bits of code.

Introduction: The social power of algorithms1. Thinking critically about and researching algorithms2. The algorithmic imaginary: exploring the ordinary affects of Facebook algorithms3. Algorithmic IF ...THEN rules and the conditions and consequences of power4. Algorithmically recognizable: Santorum's Google problem, and Google's Santorum problem5. Computing brains: learning algorithms and neurocomputation in the smart city6. Scrutinizing an algorithmic technique: the Bayes classifier as interested reading of reality7. 'Hypernudge': Big Data as a mode of regulation by design8. Algorithms (and the) everyday
