Gutenberg's fingerprint

paper, pixels and the lasting impression of books
2017
"An intimate narrative exploring the past, present, and future of books. Four seismic shifts have rocked human communication: the invention of writing, the alphabet, mechanical type and the printing press, and digitization. Poised over this fourth transition, e-reader in one hand, perfect-bound book in the other [the question is]: what is lost and what is gained as paper turns to pixel? Gutenberg's Fingerprint trolls the past, present, and evolving future of the book in search of an answer"--Provided by publisher.
