Over the next centuries, printing technology quickly improved, and the number of pages that the machine could print in an hour was about 25 at the time of Gutenberg, but by the beginning of the 19th century it was already 2400. Mass production of books allowed information to spread like a forest fire, and as books became more accessible, they ceased to be a privilege of the elite - millions had access to books, and literacy level soared. One person's thoughts could reach millions of people. The era of mass communication began. The avalanche of books allowed the knowledge to go beyond borders, as the regional knowledge towers in the world finally merged into one widely distributed tower-scale that pierced even the stratosphere. The better we are able to communicate on a mass scale, the more our species functions as a single organism, with a tower of collective knowledge of mankind in the form of a brain, and each individual human brain - in the form of a nerve or muscle fiber in the body. With the era of mass communication began to grow a collective human body - the Colossus of Man.
