Roger Chartier dialogues with Jean Lebrun on the revolutions of the book: from manuscript to print and to the Internet, and how each technical change reconfigures the roles of author, reader and publisher. It also examines censorship and book burnings, and proposes avoiding both conservative nostalgia and naive utopia in the face of the electronic text.

For readers interested in the history of the book, reading, written culture and the social impact of information technologies.
