Rob Myers reviews Alessandro Ludovico's book 'Post-Digital Print– The 
Mutation of Publishing Since 1894'.

http://www.furtherfield.org/features/reviews/post-digital-print

It tracks the many deaths of print media and its long history of 
surviving against the odds in order to show how it can survive the 
Internet as a vital part of our shared culture.

Independent bookshops, large bookshop chains, newspapers and magazines 
are having to compete with Internet-based publishing or be wiped out. 
It's not clear whether physical print publishing believes it can survive 
this encounter with the digital. Ludovico explains how it can and why it 
is important that it should.

Ludovico is the editor and publisher of Neural, a magazine for critical 
digital culture and media arts.
