International World of Electronic Media

THE INTERNATIONAL WORLD OF ELECTRONIC MEDIA offers a fresh, contemporary look at electronic media systems around the world. Each chapter focuses on a specific country, from Saudi Arabia to Russia to Japan, and is written by an "expert"--who has lived, worked in and/or taught courses on the media in the country about which he or she writes. These chapter authors include such noted international communication scholars as Douglas Boyd and Joseph Straubhaar. The book follows a consistent structure throughout, making it particularly easy for students and instructors to compare and contrast key countries and their media systems. In addition, regional overviews, written by the book's editor, offer a broader perspective on each country discussed and how similar or different that country is from others in its geographical area.Gross, Lynne Schafer S. is the author of 'International World of Electronic Media' with ISBN 9780070251427 and ISBN 0070251428.
