A celebration of all things analogue, from the machines that made
it work—reel-to-reel tape recorders, typewriters, and
telephones—to the artefacts and the culture that they made
possible  Recent years have seen an ever-growing wave of
interest in this subject and there is a gap in the market for a
complete, multi-category field guide. The book taps into an
analogue renaissance—a gathering nostalgia for physical,
real-world interaction with design and technology and a desire to
reconnect with both things and people, something that has been
eroded by the digital. Â The multi-category approach of this
book enables it to show the deeper cultural and social significance
of the analogue era with the authority to convince those who know a
lot about each category and the breadth to attract the
non-specialist. As well as tapping into the nostalgia market, there
is also an appeal to those who collect, use and maintain these
older technologies. Â The wide range of objects and images in
this book, coupled with the text by leading design historian Deyan
Sudjic, make this a standout title. Â
