Getting the Message explores the fascinating history of communications, starting with ancient civilisations such as the Greeks and Romans, and then leading through the development of the electric telegraph, and up to the present day with email and cellular phones. The book concludes with a look at the possible future of communications, the new developments to come, and the implications these will have for our every day lives. Lavishly illustrated, this book is an informative and highly entertaining introduction to the field of communications.
