This is a bold vision of the electronic media and the nature of reality in a world increasingly wired to technology. It proposes and explores concepts such as: whether democracy is outmoded and must be redesigned to reflect how technology affects power structures; whether the electronic media have extended our psychology as well as our nervous systems and our bodies; whether art must redress the balance with science and reclaim technology; and whether electronic media are reversing the effects of language, literacy and the alphabet, and whether this is a good thing.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Skin of Culture (Print on Demand (Paperback))
This is one of my favorite books dealing with the psychology of media and how the brain processes different types of media. If you like McLuhan, then you will love this.
