Compare The World On Paper by David R. Olson, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

What role has writing played in the development of our modern understanding of language, nature and ourselves? Drawing on recent advances in history, anthropology, linguistics and psychology, the author offers a bold new perspective on how writing and reading have historically and developmentally altered our understanding of language, mind and nature. These understandings, Olson argues, are by-products of living in a "world on paper." | The World On Paper by David R. Olson, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
