Media Ecology: An Approach to Understanding the Human Condition provides a long-awaited ՛
and much-anticipated introduction to media ecology, a field of inquiry defined as the study of
media as environments. Lance Strate presents a clear and concise explanation of an intellectual
tradition concerned with much more than understanding media, but rather with understanding the
conditions that shape us as human beings, drive human history, and determine the prospects for
our survival as a species.
More than a summary, this book represents a new synthesis that moves the field forward in a
manner that is both unique and unprecedented, and simultaneously grounded in an unparalleled
grasp of media ecology’s intellectual foundations and its relation to other disciplines. Taking as its
subject matter “life, the universe, and everything,” Strate describes the field as interdisciplinary
and communication-centered, provides a detailed explication of McLuhan’s famous aphorism, “the
medium is the message,” and explains that the human condition can only be understood in the
context of our biophysical, technological, and symbolic environments.
Strate provides an in-depth examination of media ecology’s four key terms: medium, which is
defined in much broader terms than in other fields; bias, which refers to tendencies inherent in
materials and methods; e//ecfs, which are best understood via the Aristotelian notion of formal
causality and contemporary systems theory; and environment, which includes the distinctions
between the oral, chirographic, typographic, and electronic media environments. A chapter on tools
serves as a guide to further media ecological research and scholarship. This book is well suited for
graduate and undergraduate courses on communication theory and philosophy.
Lance Strate is Professor of Communication and Media Studies at
Fordham University and Villanova University’s 2015 Harron Family
Chair in Communication. He is President of the New York Society
for General Semantics, Trustee and former Executive Director of the
institute of General Semantics, Past President of the New York State
Communication Association, and a founder and Past President of
the Media Ecology Association. Dr. Strate is the author of Echoes and
Reflections, On the Binding Biases of Time, Amazing Ourselves to Death:
Neil Postman’s Brave New World Revisited, and Thunder at Darwin
Station. He is a recipient of the MEA’s Walter Ong Award for
Career Achievement in Scholarship.
