Product Description
Product Description
From the Back Cover
With a new introduction by Roger Silverstone
‘Changed the way people understand TV. It was the first classic of TV studies.’ – Toby Miller, New York University
Characterized by a barrage of images, twenty-first century TV offers an apparently endless engagement with a flood of images unfolding at high speed. With reality television clogging up the airwaves, one wonders what Raymond Williams would have made of today’s televisual offerings. A tour de force on why our viewing habits can act as a means for good, it also comes with a warning that in meeting our voracious appetites for television, we may well be destroying liberty itself. First published: 1974.
