Description

"A decade after the publication of what has become a cult guidebook to understanding, Richard Saul Wurman, in this expanded & updated volume, gives clarity to confusion with new maps for navigating through a stream of bytes which leave us inundated with data but starved for the tools & patterns that give them meaning. In reality there has not been an information explosion, but rather an explosion of non-information, or stuff that simply doesn't inform."--Jacket.

Media reviews

webtechniques

Too often, this book reads like a laundry list of Wurman's projects, relevant or not.... As a whole, however, Information Anxiety 2 is too long, too broad, and too self-indulgent.

Incredible book. Very thought-provoking, a must-read for anyone involved in communication. Brilliant ideas are so easily negated when communicated poorly. This book explores the nature of how we think and learn.
