Challenging the popular myth of a present-day 'information
revolution', Media Technology and Society is essential reading for
anyone interested in the social impact of technological change.
Winston argues that the development of new media forms, from the
telegraph and the telephone to computers, satellite and virtual
reality, is the product of a constant play-off between social
necessity and suppression: the unwritten law by which new
technologies are introduced into society only insofar as their
disruptive potential is limited.
