Book Synopsis Communication Revolution by : Robert Waterman McChesney
Download or read book Communication Revolution written by Robert Waterman McChesney. This book was released on 2007. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this sharply argued book, McChesney explains why we are in the midst of a communication revolution which is at the centre of 21st century life. Yet this profound juncture is not well understood, in part because media criticism and scholarship haven't been up to the task. McChesney's concise history of media studies shows how communication scholarship has grown increasingly irrelevant in recent years, even as the media became a decisive issue of these times. The revolution in communication calls for a transformation in the way we think about media.
