About This Item
University of Toronto Press, 1971. Book. Good. Paperback. Sound reading copy with light crease on the rear cover at the corner. This is an excellent reference copy. "Man today faces a central challenge: to deal with exploding knowledge in circumstances that allow few errors. To survive, he must improve his perception of what is going on around him. In this he can be helped by the radically different modes of expression that have eclipsed the three Rs. But first he must learn to use them- and that will require the same type of rigorous preparation we know is neede to master reading and writing. This book is a primer for the new literacys of the 1970's. It is a provocative exploration of how we perceive reality. Professor Gordon considers how our minds and senses perceive and communicate and how we may augment them, mechanically, chemically, and in toher ways. Next he discusses the ways in which we make contact with on another through language. Then he delves into." o1.
