For a presentation I am making about the evolution of
technical documentation at a computing conference this
summer, I'm seeking research about how people read and
absorb information from books. Specifically, how it this
activity have changed over the decades as radio and then TV
became pervasive? Have people's expectations and ability to
make their ways through linear expositions changed?
