From Milton to McLuhan: The Ideas Behind American Journalismby J. Herbert Altschull
|
perfectly suited for its title, March 14, 2003 Reviewer:"nesyouth" (Franklin, MA United States) - I ordered this book to work on a thesis I was doing for my Mass Comm. focus. I wanted to find a book that gave me some direction on what thinkers from past the present have had an impact on the media environment that we now find ourselves in today. This book was exactly what I was looking for. It gave a small chapter to each philosopher or person who played an important part in the history of journalism and media theory. Furthermore, Altshull writes in an extrememly lucid and simple way - making the book both engaging, easy, and enjoyable without losing any of the important content. His footnotes were very useful for find other sources as well. The organization, presentation, and content found with the pages of this book were perfectly suited for my needs and have helped me handle surbeying the main points I was looking for in each philosopher. I recommend this book to any and all people.
