Today we are endlessly connected: constantly tweeting, texting or
e-mailing. This may seem unprecedented, yet it is not. Throughout
history, information has been spread through social networks, with
far-reaching social and political effects. Writing on the Wall
reveals how an elaborate network of letter exchanges forewarned of
power shifts in Cicero's Rome, while the torrent of tracts
circulating in sixteenth-century Germany triggered the Reformation.
Standage traces the story of the rise, fall and rebirth of social
media over the past 2,000 years offering an illuminating
perspective on the history of media, and revealing that social
networks do not merely connect us today - they also link us to the
past.
