“The future of the book is the blurb” – Marshall McLuhan
I’m constantly looking through books that contemplate the future of human communication. I’ve yet to come across a more accurate oracle than McLuhan. The Medium is the Massage was published in 1967, yet it provides a more descriptive sense of our future than most books written today. He offers a detailed view of life in the information age; quite impressive for a guy who died before the first personal computer went to market.
