Review
"The 300 pages of this book are packed with information oninternational developmentsin palliative care." - Community Care "This book is a must for all those working in the field, an interesting read for others working across the spectrum of health careand core reading for students from a wide range of disciplines studying health policy, sociologyand health care delivery, as we move into the 21st century." - Information Exchange "In terms of student suitability, I would recommend the text for two main reasons. First, it is rich in detail and analysis of developments in palliative care...Second, it allows the students to see how social science based ideas and concepts can be applied to the 'real world'...In overall terms, this text should be a valuable resource for social scientists and practitioners alike. It's bias is towards the latter audience, but I would still urge social science students and researchers interested in death and dying to look at what, I believe, is a very informativeand reasonably priced little book." - Medical Sociology News
Product Description
This text provides insights into the changing forms, practices, institutions, and audiences of journalism. It looks at a number of issues, providing examples for each, and offering the reader an assessment of different critical approaches to the news media on both sides of the Atlantic. The book begins with a historical consideration of the rise of "objective" reporting in newspaper, radio and televisual journalism. It goes on to explore the way news is produced, its textual conventions as a genre of discourse, and its negotiation by the reader, listener or viewer as part of everyday life. Attention then turns to address the cultural dynamics of sexism and racism as they shape different instances of news coverage.
