Communication Revolution by Robert W Mcchesney

Communication Revolution by Robert W Mcchesney

In a sharp and cogent analysis of the history of media studies and a clarion call for citizen participation, McChesney argues that with the internet and wireless technologies set to take over traditional media, there is a unique opportunity to build a more egalitarian communication system. With authorative analysis and historical knowledge, he brilliantly shows how communication scholarship is failing to rise to the challenge of the burgeoning media reform movement. Of extraordinary importance.' - Chomsky'
