The development of technology and the hunger for information has
caused a wave of change in daily life in America. Nearly every
American's environment now consists of cable television, video
cassette players, answering machines, fax machines, and personal
computers. Schement and Curtis argue that the information age has
evolved gradually throughout the twentieth century. National focus
on the production and distribution of information stems directly
from the organizing principles and realities of the market system,
not from a revolution sparked by the invention of the computer.
Now available in paperback, "Tendencies and Tensions of the
Information Age, "brings together findings from many disciplines,
including classical studies, etymology, political sociology, and
macroeconomics. This valuable resource will be enjoyed by
sociologists, historians, and scholars of communication and
information studies.
