Took advantage of the spring weather and dropped by my favorite used bookshop today. SO glad I did!
Finally got a copy of Edward Bernay's monumentally influential PROPOGANDA (1928). I was surprised to learn that the text saw no additional publication until 2005. But no other book has had a greater influence on the industrial-state's control of modern society.
Also snagged a copy of Ben Bagdikian's The Media Monopoly (Sixth Ed.) - a critical analysis of telecommunications cartels which control our access to information.
