MARSHALL MCLUHAN : Escape into Understanding
Gordon, Terrence W.
Basic Books, 1997
465 pages

This is an excellent biography of a very perceptive Canadian scholar, professor and social critic. Included in Gordon’s carefully researched profile is a helpful presentation of McLuhan’s childhood and his quiet, deep and little-known Christian faith. This is one of the better biographies about a true marketplace Christian who showed an ability to analyze culture and its sicknesses in the modern technologically dominated era of the late twentieth century. Very challenging personally, historically and intellectually.
