McLuhan's famous aphorisms and uncanny ability to sense megatrends are once again in circulation across and beyond the disciplines. Since his untimely death in 1980, McLuhan's ideas have been rediscovered and redeployed with urgency in the age of information and cybernation. Featuring critical introductions to each section by the editor, materials include: - Interpretations by globally significant writers and theorists such as Tom Wolfe, Raymond Williams, Jean Baudrillard and Umberto Eco, and reveals the contours of McLuhan's reception in France, as well as skirmishes with his leading ideas by journalists and postmodernists throughout the world.- Essays by noted communications theorists such as James Carey, Donald Theall and Derrick de Kerckhove, linking McLuhan's influence across the arts and in relation to critical theory, literary theory and recent literature on postmodernism.- The McLuhan renaissance of the 1990s in the rise of cyberculture, touching upon his elevation to patron saint of Wired magazine, providing a foundation for Paul Virilio's theses on speed, and interpretative framework for theorizing new technologies from geographic information systems to the Internet and cyborg life.
