I love this. McLuhan at both his most lucidly brilliant and most loquasciously bonkers. Packed with quotable wonderfulness and perspective-shifting visionary genius, it is worth consuming again and again, even if it means choking from time to time on some of his wilder ideas and prophecies.

    I have taught this as one of the best introductions to McLuhan; it covers the major concepts - and the interviewer pushes him to be clear about them. (And, personally, I always enjoy his joke about how the LLD is like LSD.)
