Television has conditioned us to tolerate visually entertaining material measured out in spoonfuls of time, to the detriment of rational public discourse and reasoned public affairs. In this eloquent, persuasive book, Neil Postman alerts us to the real and present dangers of this state of affairs, and offers compelling suggestions as to how to withstand the media onslaught. Before we hand over politics, education, religion, and journalism to the show business demands of the television age, we must recognize the ways in which the media shape our lives and the ways we can, in turn, shape them to serve out highest goals.
Neil Postman (1931-2003) was chairman of the Department of Communication Arts at New York University and founder of its Media Ecology program.
作者从认知学上说明了为什么电视不可能传达深刻思想。我自己半年前决定尽量不看电影电视剧也是模糊的悟到了这个道理。不过对于文化的分析未免有些本末倒置,电视并没有消灭书,只要不看电视就行了呗。
评分“It is not obstinacy or ignorance but a sense of irrelevance that leads to the diminution of history.” Real masterpiece discuss about the future instead of the past.
评分很有见地,现今社会就和赫胥黎所描述的那个未来很像。

评分动物农庄适合解释专制和独裁国家。美丽新世界适合解释过度自由,娱乐至死的资本主义国家。就此书本身,写得很一般,非常美国。但也许是因为我不看电视,无感大众娱乐,所以对作者感到绝望的东西没什么同感。
