Synopsis

This book takes a look back at the pre-Internet era, exploring the habits, ideas, objects, and preferences that have been lost to the digital age. From voicemails to blind dates, and from postcards to genuine surprises at high school reunions, it examines both the small and large repercussions of our increasingly online lives. This illustrated record serves as a reflective guide to understanding what we've gained and what we've sacrificed in the age of cyberspace.
