Accounting as a Brainframe

These days I am reading De Kerckhove's Brainframes, a book that puts forward the idea that as we are shaping technologies, technologies are also shaping us, on the very neurological level, making us into very different kind of people.

He attacks the rethoric of 'the same old human nature with new better tools'. New tools make new humans.

I would like to put a link to the book here, but I couldn't get anything from the web. weird.

Anyway, I came across to this article that seems to point out how accounting has been a fundamental brainframe (neurological stance?) in the evolution of our society.
