It's been said that without Harold A. Innis there could have
been no Marshall McLuhan. Empire and Communications is one of
Innis's most important contributions to the debate about how media
influence the development of consciousness and societies. In this
seminal text, he traces humanity's movement from the oral tradition
of preliterate cultures to the electronic media of recent times.
Along the way, he presents his own influential concepts of oral
communication, time and space bias, and monopolies of
knowledge.
