Geographies of Media and Communication systematically
analyzes the relationship between geography and communication and
shows how geographical approaches open up familiar and unfamiliar
aspects of communication for analysis and discussion.
- Introduces media and communication from a geographical
viewpoint
- Guides students through familiar themes of the study of
communication towards more profound insights
- Explores issues such as 'Deaf Geographies', 'The Time-Space of
Communication', and 'The Map as an Immutable Mobile'
- Organizes themes within a four-part structure: media in spaces,
spaces in media, media in places, and places in media
- Re-interprets the cultural turn in geography as in fact the sensitization of geographers to a wide range of theories about communication
