TechGnosis: Myth, Magic and Mysticism in the Age of Information

By Erik Davis

Categories: Computers & Technology, Religion & Spirituality

Erik Davis traces the religious, mystical and occult impulses that have run through communication technology, from alchemy and the telegraph to cyberspace. First published in 1998 and reissued with a new foreword, the book argues that our dreams for information technology echo much older hopes for transcendence, magic and connection.
