Reviews
This is one of the few books in cultural studies which tries to intergrate analysis of texts with contexts (i.e. representation, the production of representation and political economy)' - Critical Arts
`An impressively clear and thoughtful introduction to communication science. Uniquely, this outlines the core integrating concepts of an emergent discipline, spanning interpersonal, group, organisational, mass-societal, and international levels of communication. This is an indispensable text for communication students' - Jay G Blumler, Emeritus Professor, The University of Leeds
