    LIFE BEFORE

    The first era was the Traditional Oral Society, where speech and
    sound were the main forms of communication. This era had the least
    amount of communicative technology, relying on face-to-face
    interactions, and can be described as the most simple and equal time
    period. Following the Oral Society, came the Transitional Scribal
    Phase, in which reading and writing were developed. A small
    percentage of people were able to read and write and therefore, they
    controlled the knowledge the rest of society gained. 

    LIFE AFTER

    Printing technology as we know has been evolved from 220 A.D originated in China as a
    form of woodblock printing, we have come a long way since then. Things took a turn for
    the better during the renaissance period for the printer and later modeled the scientific
    revolution to the way it is today. Knowledge sharing could not have been possible if it
    were not for the versatility of printing and the ease it provided in spreading information
    to nook and corners of the earth.

    IMPACT OF PRINTING PRESS


    The printing revolution is a term used to describe the massive change in society
    that occurred with the invention of the printing press. It brought about a rapid
    change in literature and lowered the cost of books so that more people could own
    them. The invention of the printing press made mass production possible and
    introduced Europe to moveable type; this allowed for texts to be printed much
    faster than ever before and marked a turning point in literacy rates as more people
    could now learn how to read. Furthermore, it helped advance science by making
    available many scientific works which lead to an increase in literacy among
    scientists who were able to share their ideas with other scientists around Europe
