How the World Was One

1992 English-language book by Arthur C. Clarke
First edition (publ. Gollancz)

How the World Was One: Beyond the Global Village is Arthur C. Clarke's history and survey of the communications revolution, published in 1992.[1][2] The title includes an intentional pun; in English How the World Was Won would sound exactly the same.

This work is based on an earlier work by Clarke entitled Voice Across the Sea, published in 1958.[3]
