Beschreibung
Thanks to modern technological advances, we now enjoy seemingly unlimited access to information. Yet how did information become so central to our everyday lives, and how did its processing and storage make our data-driven era possible? This volume is the first to consider these questions in comprehensive detail, tracing the global emergence of information practices, technologies, and more, from the premodern era to the present. With entries that span archives to algorithms, and scribes to surveilling, this is the ultimate reference on how information has shaped and been shaped by societies.
