Building a Bridge to the 18th Century: How the Past Can Improve Our Future

"Time and time again, [Postman] risks our displeasure, forcing us to see ourselves in the clear light of reason. With his newest book...there's something both refreshing and old-fashioned in Postman's desire to make things better....If not new...it's still a persuasive and...timely argument. In an ideal world, [this book] would be required reading for the nation's incoming freshman class."Neil Postman is the author of 'Building a Bridge to the 18th Century: How the Past Can Improve Our Future', published 2000 under ISBN 9780375701276 and ISBN 0375701273.
