Michael Gitter, Sylvie Anapol and Erika Glazer: Do you Remember Technology?

(Chronicle Books)

$29.95

Review: Gilbert Wong

The past is indeed a foreign country.

If you remember when numbers recording the time flipped down on clock radios and what a slide rule is, then the collection of images this book contains will be a useful primer to show young fogeys what an old codger you are.

This functions primarily as a nostalgia-fest but lacks the information to be a useful history of technology.
