A journey through the evolution of knowledge, communication, and information.The debut non-fiction book by best-selling author Chris Haughton.
History, as it is often taught, is a list of kings and queens and treaties and events. It presents the what and when, but it rarely asks why.
Why is it that we had kings and queens at all?
Why then all of a sudden did we abandon them and shift to democracies?
Why did the world's religions rise around the same time?
Why is society dominated by men?
The answers all come down to the same thing: information. The striving to share information, and - at the same time - the striving to undermine it, explains so much of today's world and connects so many seemingly unconnected things: the rise of religions, states, science, democracy, the west, militarism, racism, fascism, consumerism, big tech, polarization, and AI.
This history of information is closely connected to the history of visual communication - and as these two are largely the same - it makes sense to tell this story visually: a history of graphics told through graphics. The History of Information, through a mix of timelines, graphics, and illustrations, clearly breaks down and explains each concept for children and adults alike.
The History of Information includes:
- A beautiful look at the story of information; from the first languages and cave paintings, through to how we communicate and record information today.
- Content written and illustrated by world famous and multi-award winning author and illustrator, Chris Haughton.
- A global journey throughout history from the origination of language, how information has been passed on and recorded, and how this affected humanity.
Haughton, Chris

Nice look, perfect size and great price!
Color: Black, Size: Small
Absolutely perfect for 5 remotes. The bins are deep and very wide. It's a very reasonable price and it's compact size fits in smaller spaces so it doesn't take up a lot of room. Also, you can't beat the price and genuine leather. Good in any room.

My remote caddy
Color: Black, Size: Small
I have so many gadgets that uses remotes, my end table looked awful with remotes everywhere and when I would move something, a remote would fall off the table. It was aggravating but now I have a nice caddy to sit on my table and it holds all of my remotes. It's beautifully designed and was shipped to me very quickly. I think it was in my mailbox within 24 hours. I'm very pleased with the item and the person I purchased it from was quick to get it to me. Thank you.

Sleek and spacious
Color: Black, Size: Small
Perfect for those who have multiple remotes and need a single place to stow them away. Material is leather like, firm and has a texture design. It suits well on a countertop or end table. It is not petite.

Great product
Color: Black, Size: Small
This is great to store multiple remotes in a small footprint clearing up table room. My 6 year old Grandson loves it also keeping remotes in one area. He operates the TV also. We loved it so much we bought a second for another room.

Perfect for me.
Color: Black, Size: Small
I was a little trepidatious before opening it all up and checking out the holder. I didn't know whether or not the larger remotes I had would fit. How would it work for the bulky / longer TV and Universal Remotes. It worked perfectly.
The holder is small enough to use on a small side table next to the couch. And it's very simple to access. The living room now looks like a living room...rather than Radio Shack gone biserk.
