Ithiel de Sola Pool, Technologies of Freedom. Harvard University Press (also under imprint "Belknap Press"), 1984 reprint edition (or any edition OK). This book is out of print -- but strangely it is in the bookstore anyway. You can also use the library's copy or buy used online (try alibris or amazon).
