This excellent book achieves the impressive task of reviewing a century of scholarship while remaining finely attuned to the latest developments – from TikTok to ChatGPT and beyond. A magnificent introduction to media and communication studies that should be a required textbook for anyone engaging with our field.
In his beautifully balanced and broad-ranging account of a fast-changing field, Paul Hodkinson has successfully brought together myriad perspectives with which to critically analyse today's media culture and media society, skilfully integrating theory from earlier times with the latest insights and problems.
Excellent introduction to the media and their role in society. Does a very good job explaining to beginning students how various parts of the media landscape fit together and why it all matters.
