Books and Monographs
1950   Intermediate Period Influences in the Northeast. PhD Thesis, University of Pennsylvania.
1953-1959   Explorations (Journal). Edited by Edmund Carpenter and Marshall McLuhan. Donald Theall, a graduate student involved in the project, recounted to Philip Marchand, "Everything about the magazine that eventually came out was impeccable - the copy, layout, design. It would have been a mediocre production without Ted [Carpenter]" (Marshall McLuhan: The Medium and the Messenger by Philip Marchand 1989, page 119).
1959   Eskimo. Toronto: University of Toronto Press. Reprinted in 1970 with minor revisions.
1960   Explorations in Communication, an anthology. (with Marshall McLuhan) Boston: Beacon Press.
1964   Understanding Media: The Extensions of Man. By Marshall McLuhan. New York: McGraw-Hill.
Carpenter writes in "That Not-So-Silent Sea" (2001): "The final version of Understanding Media mixed both our contributions. This partly explains its uneven tone" (253). I note this, not to steal credit from McLuhan, but to inform those scholars interested in Carpenter's work.
