Do you envision books ever again having the power to move the nation as they did in Revolutionary or antislavery times? Why or why not?

Do you envision books ever again having the power to move the nation as they did in Revolutionary or antislavery times? Why or why not?

No.
I know the book have a big power. Sometimes, smart people influence my opinion. So I think they can be part of the reson of revolution.
But I see another point.
At the past, the book was one of important and influential media. Book is cheap and primitive media.
But now, there are many types of media, like internet or facebook. So, people can communicate easily using these media. And this make a public opinion. Public opinion have a bigger power than little smart people's words.
