«Life After Television» is George Gilder's essay on technology and media, published by W. W. Norton & Company in hardcover (220 pages, in English).
Gilder announces the end of television and its replacement by the telecomputer, a personal device connected by fiber optics. This change would alter business, education and leisure, and weaken centralized organizations: cable networks, telephone companies and bureaucracies. The interactive medium would benefit the individual over mass media.
Subtitle: «The Coming Transformation of Media and American Life». Revised 1994 edition, with about 50% new material compared to the original of 1985.
For readers interested in technology, media and business, and for those who want to revisit how communication was imagined in the 1990s.
