Description: The aftermath of Johannes Gutenberg's revolution in communications technology was violent, chaotic, and powerful. Everything changed then – and today, in our own Gutenberg moment, our world is poised to experience an equally profound metamorphosis. What does the 15th century have to teach us about our digital future? Join Alex S. Jones, Laurence M. Lombard Lecturer and Director of the Joan Shorenstein Center on the Press, Politics & Public Policy, for a look over the horizon by peering backward.
