The Writing Revolution

Autor Amalia E Gnanadesikan
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 iul 2025
In a world of rapid technological advancement, it is easy to forget that writing is the original Information Technology, created to transcend the limitations of human memory and to defy time and space. The Writing Revolution describes how this communication tool has conquered the world, making possible everything from complex bureaucracy, literature, and science, to instruction manuals and love letters. The author deftly describes each of the worlds major written traditions, tracing its origins, the way it captures the language(s) for which it is used, its applications and adaptations, and its cultural impact. From the first cuneiform clay tablet to the World Wide Web by way of Egyptian hieroglyphs, Japanese syllabaries, and the printing press, among others this book offers a fascinating insight into the history of one of the worlds greatest inventions.
