Everything has its place: The Extraordinary Story of Alphabetical Order
The book by historian Judith Flanders is dedicated to how the alphabet organized the world around us: combining features of academic research and captivating fiction, it tells the ways of organizing our perceptions of the surrounding reality through various symbolic...
systems, somehow related to the alphabet. The reader is to embark on a real journey from the origins of human civilization to the 21st century to discover how, thanks to people like Samuel Pepys or Denis Diderot, the skills to capture information and systematize accumulated knowledge were formed through the order in which the letters of human writing are arranged.
