The Economics of Attention: Style and Substance in the Age of Information
Richard A. Lanham
Traces our epochal move from an economy of things and objects to an economy of attention. According to the author, the central commodity in our new age of information is not stuff but style, for style is what competes for our attention amidst the din and deluge of new media. He aims to map the frontier that information technologies have created.
