ABC : Alphabetization of the Popular Mind
ABC Alphabetization of the Popular Mind
Author: Barry Sanders, Ivan Illich
An intense examination of the effects of technology on literacy and language. The authors argue that there is a phenomenon transforming modern culture--language is becoming part of a technology of "information systems" with an emphasis on control, rather than human exchange. As a result, all language is becoming debased.

Certainly an interesting little book, but it could have used a lot more detail.
