This is the fifth edition of a highly-respected collection of essays from some of the world's leading scholars. Boasting fifteen new chapters, it is one of the most international and up-to-date introductions to media studies available.
The book is organised into three key areas of debate- media and society, media production and mediations. Each new edition of the book has sought to be a textbook that encompasses the field, including essays on political communication, media and feminism, media political economy, sociology of media organisations, media representations, media influence, internet studies and more. New to this edition is an emphasis on film studies, an increasingly important area of media studies. This text is an essential resource for all media, communication and film studies students who want to broaden their knowledge and understanding of how the media operates and affects society across the globe.
'An original contribution to media studies. Beautifully organized, well-written and incisive.' Professor James Carey, Columbia University, USA
'The best collection of current thinking in the field.' Professor Elihu Katz, Israel Institute of Applied Social Research
