"If your students read just one book on the contemporary media environment, this should be it. Press and Williams deliver a masterful overview of the changing media landscape – addressing issues of ownership, politics, democracy, and identity – written in lively, lucid prose." (Laura Grindstaff, University of California at Davis)
"This accessible text draws readers into the complex new dynamics shaping our media environment today. From film to news, economics to textual interpretation, Press and Williams provide an indispensable introduction to the debates that now drive media studies." (Nick Couldry, Goldsmiths, University of London)
“Solidly founded on responsible media scholarship, this crisp analysis of the new media environment makes the novel seem familiar and the familiar seem novel. Press and Williams’ bright and timely text demonstrates once again that there’s nothing so practical as good theory.” (Menahem Blondheim, Hebrew University of Jerusalem)
