About

Walter J. Ong’s classic work provides a fascinating insight into the social effects of oral, written, printed and electronic technologies and their impact on philosophical, theological, scientific and literary thought.

This thirtieth-anniversary edition – coinciding with Ong’s centenary year – reproduces his best-known and most influential book in full and brings it up to date with two new exploratory essays by cultural writer and critic John Hartley.
