In 1979 Elizabeth Eisenstein provided the first full-scale
treatment of the fifteenth-century printing revolution in the West
in her monumental two-volume work, The Printing Press as an Agent
of Change. This abridged edition, after summarising the initial
changes introduced by the establishment of printing shops, goes on
to discuss how printing challenged traditional institutions and
affected three major cultural movements: the Renaissance, the
Reformation, and the rise of modern science. Also included is a
later essay which aims to demonstrate that the cumulative processes
created by printing are likely to persist despite the recent
development of new communications technologies.
