Listen to Neil Postman speak about Media Ecology Education at the SCA conference, Chicago 1973.
Neil Postman was a prominent American educator, media theorist and cultural critic. For more than forty years, he was associated with New York University.
Inspired by the values of Classical and Enlightenment culture, Postman was something of an old-fashioned humanist, who in the face of extraordinary technological change in contemporary society held firmly to his beliefs that there is a limit to the promise of new technology, and that it cannot be a substitute for human values.
