Q:  You mentioned his faults. Where are there holes
in McLuhan’s thinking? Where do you think his
critics and detractors have just cause?

A:  It’s a very difficult question. I mean, part of the
problem is that the really important, positive,
useful parts of his ideas have not been fully
examined yet. There’s something very strange,
almost pernicious afoot, in that most of his books
are not presently available. They’re out of print.
Why is that? Now we’re hoping to remedy that
soon, but nevertheless, that’s the present state of
affairs.
