“When a book hits its sixth edition, one knows it's a classic. Media and Society is that and more, providing sharp, insightful, not-to-be-missed analysis of the current state of the media and why it matters.” – */Barbie Zelizer, Raymond Williams Professor of Communication, Annenberg School, University of Pennsylvania, USA/**//*

“As the field's most reliable guide, /Media and Society /has continued to foster vital debate, extend boundaries, and raise the horizon of vision in communications research. This classic, in all its six editions, deserves an enduring place in the literature.” – */Professor Chin-Chuan Lee, Yu Shan Chair Professor of Communication, National Chengchi University, Taiwan/*
