{"product_id":"the-early-information-society-alistair-black-9780754642794","title":"The Early Information Society: Information Management in Britain before the Computer","description":"This book offers an historical account which questions the novelty of the current information society. In support of this the authors examine the history and traditions in Britain of two separate but related information-rich occupations- information management and information science - by repositioning their origins before the age of the computer, and by identifying the forces driving their development from 1900-1960. It will be essential reading for students, researchers and practitioners in the library and information science field, and for sociologists and historians interested in the information society.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alistair Black,Dave Muddiman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0754642798\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780754642794\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/28\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 302\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.33lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.69d","brand":"Alistair Black","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48153104023807,"sku":"9780754642794","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d3cac550-a311-4b3b-87e3-17bb725dc0bb.jpg?v=1770781311","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-early-information-society-alistair-black-9780754642794","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
