Traditional forms of information communication such as the book and the textbook do contribute to our belief in linear history. The book and the text book help us to record the history that is taking place now and that has taken place farther back in history. Text books are never fully up to date. With the book, we can read about different events and understand the meaning of linear history. We know that one thing happens because of another, but another event can occur because of the first. We know that the people who wrote books knew that they were documenting history. For example, the Bible teaches us about the church history. In the Bible there are many events that are labeled linear history. Linear history is not just in the Bible though. There are many other books and textbooks that tech us and show us examples of this history. Today there are many books written for our entertainment, but in older times they were used more for communication. Most people who wrote books probably wrote them to be read by people in the future. We would be clueless about many things if it were not for books. We know that books and textbooks are very important to today’s everyday life, and hopefully we will document our history in order for it to be read by the living beings of the future.
