The entire thing is available online here: dhdebates.gc.cuny.edu/ or you could buy the book.

A central theme of the book is what should and should not be considered part of the digital humanities. How does one define the field? What on Earth does that mean? Why are we doing this and where are we going?

It’s a start.
