Coiner of the famous phrase "the medium is the message" and author of two widely read, controversial volumes-- The Guttenberg Galaxy and Understanding Media --Marshall McLuhan was one of the most well-known intellectuals of the 1960s. He appeared on the cover of Newsweek and The Saturday Review and was written about in Time , Life , The Nation , The New Yorker , The National Review , and numerous other publications. A seminal thinker, he introduced popular culture as a subject for serious thought, and started people thinking about how technology--especially electronic media--shapes the way we perceive the world. McLuhan corresponded with a vast number of people, from Hubert Humphrey and Jimmy Carter to popular advice columnist Ann Landers. At times playful and at times profound, his letters offer an invaluable commentary on McLuhan's work and, in some instances, the most lucid and detailed explanation of his ideas available. This volume offers an invaluable glimpse of the private life and inner thoughts of one of the great minds of the twentieth century.
