In this eloquent and persuasive book, Neil Postman examines the deep and broad effects of television culture on the manner in which we conduct our public affairs, and how "entertainment values" have corrupted the very way we think. As politics, news, religion, education, and commerce are given less and less expression in the form of the printed word, they are rapidly being reshaped to suit the requirements of television.

The way we choose to communicate is dissected through history. From the invention of the alphabet to modern day social media...and different ways we come across through history. From the days of oratory lectures...letter writing then emails and texts now TV and social media and how the medium we use to communicate affects the message we try to get across. Its an understanding of how we perceive ideas and the importance of the medium we choose to communicate to the world. Our ideas and thoughts are easy misinterpreted through the way we communicate and the effect it has had on society in general.
