Too Much to Know
Too Much To Know: Managing Scholarly Information before the Modern Age (Yale University Press, 2010) is a book by American intellectual historian Ann M. Blair. The book deals with the concept of information overload. Blair argues that the feeling of being overwhelmed by information is not unique to the digital age. Instead it has existed since antiquity and in many cultures.
