The Coming of the Book: The Impact of Printing, 1450-1800 - Verso World History
Henri-Jean Martin
The emergence of the book was an event of world historical importance, and heralded the dawning of modernity. This title presents the history of that process, combining technological history, sociology and anthropology, with the study of modes of consciousness to root the development of printing in the ideological struggles of Western Europe.
