Format:Paperback
In an increasingly digitized landscape, 'DIGITAL CULTURES' is a must read for students and scholars of New Media alike. Informative and accessible, I found it quite an invaluable resource for my study. Would highly recommend it to all you Media boffins out there!!Real value for your money, I would say!! It also appears to be the first of its kind which offers an insightful,comprehensive perspective on Media theories which have helped inform the discipline, both Old and New Media,tracing way back from Modernism,the Effects model right upto the contemporary Postmodern scenario.Enjoyed every moment of it!!
