Yeah, Huxley was right.
I thought this book would feel totally outdated because it was written in the 80's. Quite the contrary! We just have to replace "TV" with "anything we consume on the Internet right now" to make this book current. It is a thought provoking analysis of our Information Age and how media formats can shape our culture. It gives a clear distinction between the typographic era, when information was written, and the "show business" model we have today with lots of images, short messages and barely no reflection. Highly recommended!
