10. Non-Literate Society
The Masai are a very famous warrior tribe in Kenya whose lives centre around herding cattle.
Women spend much time doing bead work. They decorate animal hides, gourds, and make beaded jewellery including arm and leg bracelets and amulets.
Their wealth is measured by the number of cattle they have acquired.
Their society is reminiscent of what ours would have been like thousands of years ago.

His wealth is measured by the amount of money(printing press) or material possessions he has.
Writing is everywhere, in all professions and aspects of life, writing is a necessity.

12. How I.T. Shapes Us

Nowadays, however, people are rooted to the spot in front of a computer screen.
