The age of the image: redefining literacy in a world of screens

This is an urgent, erudite, and practical book that redefines literacy to embrace how we think and communicate now.

Drawing on the history of literacy on the science of how various forms of storytelling work on the human brain, and on the practical value of literacy in real-world situations, Apkon convincingly argues that now is the time to transform the way we teach, create, and communicate so that we can all step forward together into a rich and stimulating future.
