Ann M. Blair is Henry Charles Lea Professor of History, Harvard University.
The flood of information brought to us by advancing technology is often accompanied by a distressing sense of 'information overload', yet this experience is not unique to modern times. In fact, says Ann Blair in this intriguing book, the invention of the printing press and the ensuing abundance of books provoked sixteenth- and seventeenth-century European scholars to register complaints very similar to our own. The author examines methods of information management in ancient and medieval Europe as well as the Islamic world and China, then focuses particular attention on the organization, composition, and reception of Latin reference books in print in early modern Europe. She explores in detail the sophisticated and sometimes idiosyncratic techniques that scholars and readers developed in an era of new technology and exploding information.

评分講的是early modern的reference book。當時的讀書人就已經在抱怨要讀的東西太多,把眼睛弄壞瞭、健康也壞瞭……。
评分很少見的在評價人數<20人的情況下接近9分的非虛構類原版圖書,何況這還是10年前齣版的書。

评分非常有見地的研究,第三章Note-Taking as Information Management可作為理解魏希德對唐宋筆記和類書相關論斷的參考文章~
