an assessment of his concept of the 'evolution of consciousness'; Extensive references to recent scholarship on orality literacy and the study of knowledge technologies tracing changes in how we know what we know These illuminating essays contextualize Ong within recent intellectual history and display his work's continuing force in the ongoing study of the relationship between literature and the media as well as that of psychology education and sociological thought
