<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>During the 1980s, Ivan Illich added another dimension to his thought through the study of Medieval history. In this volume he aims to demonstrate the extent to which the groundwork for the institutions tht characterize our world today were laid in the twelfth century. Topics center on health, housing, school, language and literacy, peace and ethics.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Ivan Illich (1926-2002) was an Austrian philosopher, Roman Catholic priest, and critic of technological society and the unacknowledged axioms of the modern mind. He studied theology and philosophy at the Gregorian University in Rome and obtained a doctorate in history at the University of Salzburg.
