Reviews

--Anna Gough-Yates, author of Understanding Women's Magazines: Publishing, Markets and Readerships in Late-Twentieth Century Britain
"A remarkable case study of an industry in flux, Duffy's well-researched book would be an asset to any course on magazine media in general and on women's magazines in particular."--Journalism & Mass Communication Quarterly
"Remake, Remodel offers a compelling look at the ways in which a shifting media landscape is provoking structural changes in labor organization, content development, and professional identity within the women's magazine industry."--Journal of American Culture

Duffy insightfully charts the dilemmas and complexities the magazine faces as it strives to define itself in the face of changes in technology and political economy in media and advertising."--Matthew P. McAllister, coeditor of The Routledge Companion to Advertising and Promotional Culture
