About This Item
# Paperback: 376 pages Normal reading creases on spine, tiny scrape on bottom of spine, otherwise very good condition. Publisher: Harper Perennial (March 1, 1978) ISBN-10: 0688082742 ISBN-13: 978-0688082741 "A total departure from previous writing about television, this book is the first ever to advocate that the medium is not reformable. Its problems are inherent in the technology itself and are so dangerous -- to personal health and sanity, to the environment, and to democratic processes -- that TV ought to be eliminated forever.". Very Good.
