Description: Was used for a class and is still in good condition. 20th Anniversary Edition of Amusing Ourselves to Death by Neil Postman DESCRIPTION ON BACK OF BOOK: Television has habituated us to visual entertainment measured out in spoonfuls of time. But what happens when we come to expect the same things from our politics and public discourse? what happens to journalism, education, religion when they become forms of show business? Twenty years ago, Neil Postman's lively polemic was the first book to consider the way that electronic media were reshaping our culture. Now, with TB joined by the Internet, cell phones, cable, and DVDs, Amusing Ourselves to Death carries even greater significance. Elegant, incisive, and terrifically readable, it's a compelling take on our addiction to entertainment.
