Elena D. Hristova, Aimee-Marie Dorsten and Carol A. Stabile is now out.

A little about the book:

The scholarship, research, and criticism of women who developed key 
theories of communication and methods for the study of media.

/The Ghost Reader: Recovering Women's Contributions to Media 
Studies/ offers a fresh perspective on the intellectual history of the 
field of media studies, a broad scholarly field that encompasses the 
interdisciplinary and overlapping fields of media studies, cultural 
studies, and communication studies. By recovering the work of the 
diverse group of women who labored at the margins of media studies as it 
took shape during the formative years of communication research between 
the 1930s and the 1950s, and providing scholarly contexts for this work, 
The Ghost Reader shows that “intersectional considerations” were key 
modes of engagement for intellectuals, academics, and activists who 
happened to be women. They did so decades before feminist perspectives 
were reintegrated into histories of the field.
