With its wide-ranging approach, Analogue: A Field Guide reveals the deeper cultural and social significance of the analogue era, making it an ideal choice for those nostalgic for physical media or interested in collecting and maintaining older technologies. Written by leading design historian Deyan Sudjic, this book taps into the growing renaissance of interest in the analogue world.
