Writing surrounds us in the modern world - but how did it develop
into the systems we use today, and given the technological
developments of the twenty-first century, what does its future
hold? This beautifully illustrated book, published to coincide with
an interactive landmark British Library exhibition, celebrates the
act of writing from across the globe. Exploring the history of
writing and including more than 150 illustrations from carved stone
inscriptions and medieval manuscripts to samples of early printing,
modern handwriting and digital inputting systems, it reflects on
the use of writing over the last 5,000 years and challenges our
preconceptions about writing's decline in the digital age.
