A powerful counternarrative to the techno-utopian belief that we would live in an ever-improving, all-digital world.” ― The New York Times An International Bestseller Named a Best Book of the Year by The New York Times • The Globe and Mail • National Post • Inc. In this vital book, David Sax makes the life-affirming case for a world that is centered less around technology and more around humanity. As digital technologies encroach on every corner of daily life, many people are turning back to tactile options. Sax documents the lasting, surprising, and often counterintuitive resurgence of analog in many forms: vinyl records, board games, physical books, and more. He uncovers story after story of tangible goods and experiences that have found a new economic viability and a growing audience of devotees, despite persistent claims that digital outperforms analog at every turn. For anyone who has grown weary of endless automation, Sax offers proof that tactile goods and spaces, and a human touch, still matter. Impassioned and eye-opening, The Revenge of Analog is an enduring testament to humanity. Review: And now I collect vinyl and notebooks - A very fun read. It was not only inspiring but eye opening to learn about all the different people involved with the industries discussed. Review: Thought provoking for self evaluation - It is an interesting read but not a thriller. It is like reading research about various topics. It does provide some food for thought in evaluating all of the "stuff" in our lives and its influence. I am still reading it and I do find myself reflecting on some of the ideas presented. I am evaluating some things in my own daily life. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #313,820 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #56 in Retailing Industry (Books) #449 in Popular Culture in Social Sciences #975 in Entrepreneurship (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 467 Reviews | ## Images ![The Revenge of Analog: Real Things and Why They Matter - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91v8cwa9xyL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ And now I collect vinyl and notebooks *by S***C on September 5, 2025* A very fun read. It was not only inspiring but eye opening to learn about all the different people involved with the industries discussed. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thought provoking for self evaluation *by M***N on March 8, 2017* It is an interesting read but not a thriller. It is like reading research about various topics. It does provide some food for thought in evaluating all of the "stuff" in our lives and its influence. I am still reading it and I do find myself reflecting on some of the ideas presented. I am evaluating some things in my own daily life. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fascinating Counter-thinking about the Digital Era *by G***L on January 10, 2017* This is one of those books I find myself recommending over and over to friends and acquaintances--heck, even to near-strangers. It's a fascinating thesis and provocative insight into what experiences human beings crave and are rewarded by. One of the sticky passages: the author's observation about how much more sensory learning a two year old gains from finger painting with actual finger paints--which of course end up dripping down her arm, in her hair, on the dog, and occasionally on the paper--than from drawing on an Ipad. That and the concept of "finishability" which explains why it's so much more satisfying to read an actual book (or, get this, an actual newspaper) than reading the same content online in a never-ending trip down the rabbit hole of the internet. Nothing like the satisfying feeling of reading a good book to its end notes. That certainly goes for this one. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/38024167-the-revenge-of-analog-real-things-and-why-they-matter](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/38024167-the-revenge-of-analog-real-things-and-why-they-matter) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-06-23*
