Stuart Cosgrove is the author of Detroit 67: the Year that Changed Soul. One of his ten top books on 1960s America, as shared at the Guardian:The Medium Is the Massage by Marshall McLuhanRead about the other books on the list.
Another landmark book from 1967 that revolutionised the way we see technological media and communication. A huge influence on Wired magazine, it foresaw ideas we take for granted today, such as the growth of participative media and user-generated content. It manages to crystallise big ideas in a small, accessible format.
