About This Item
Canada: University of Toronto Press, 1972. Paperback. Very Good . Paperback. White glossy cover with orange text. Itâs been said that without Harold A. Innis there could have been no Marshall McLuhan. Empire and Communications is one of Innisâs most important contributions to the debate about how media influence the development of consciousness and societies. In this seminal text, he traces humanityâs movement from the oral tradition of preliterate cultures to the electronic media of recent times. Along the way, he presents his own influential concepts of oral communication, time and space bias, and monopolies of knowledge. 184pp.<br><br>CONDITION: Covers are moderately rubbed. Spine is sunned and has some cracks. Pages are clear and crisp. Binding and textblock are sound. Full refund if not satisfied.
