Communication, Cultural and Media Studies

by John Hartley

This fourth edition of Communication, Cultural and Media Studies: The Key Concepts is an indispensible guide to the most important terms in the field. It offers clear explanations of the key concepts, exploring their origins, what they're used for and why they provoke discussion. The author provides a multi-disciplinary explanation and assessment of the key concepts, from 'authorship' to 'censorship'; 'creative industries' to 'network theory'; 'complexity' to 'visual culture'.-- Publisher description.
