Recenzii

"This will be the first port of call for students and lecturers around the world wanting to understand British media history. It covers a wide spectrum, summarises existing research, and breaks new ground. It is a landmark book."
- James Curran, Professor of Communications, Goldsmiths, University of London, UK
"This impressively comprehensive compilation of essays on British media history comprises 50 essays by a wide range of scholars from universities throughout the UK.  More than a typical historical analysis, the book problematizes (in Karen Weekes's definition) media history in considering whether media are a cause or a symptom of a larger cultural phenomenon.  This cultural contextualization and interdisciplinary approach to media history offers an invaluable contrast to the more economically induced pressures of time and space created by the diverse digital media market environment.  Another strength of the book is that the editors... planned it to reach “the widest possible range of readers”; at that, the book is a brilliant success... This volume is an invaluable resource for the study of British media history... Summing Up: Highly recommended."
- M. R. Grant, emerita, Wheaton College, USA, in CHOICE
