Index, A History of the: A Bookish Adventure from Medieval Manuscripts to the Digital Age

byDennis Duncan

Dennis Duncan uses Index, A History of the to investigate a Bookish Adventure from Medieval Manuscripts to the Digital Age through a carefully framed historical account. The narrative identifies the people, decisions, and pressures that shaped the subject, then places those developments within the wider field of history. Attention to evidence keeps the discussion anchored while allowing disagreement, uncertainty, and unintended consequences to remain visible. Readers finish with a sharper understanding of the subject and why its consequences still deserve attention.
