A Dictionary of Media and Communication

A Dictionary of Media and Communication by Daniel Chandler

This authoritative and up-to-date A-Z covers all aspects of interpersonal, mass, and networked communication, including digital and mobile media, advertising, journalism, and nonverbal communication. This new edition is particularly focused on expanding coverage of social media terms, to reflect its increasing prominence to media and communication studies as a whole. More than 2,000 entries have been revised, and over 500 new terms have been added to reflect current theoretical terminology, including concepts such as artificial intelligence, cisgender, fake news, hive mind, use theory, and wikiality. The dictionary also bridges the gap between theory and practice, and contains many technical terms that are relevant to the communication industry, including dialogue editing, news aggregator, and primary colour correction. The text is complemented by biographical notes and extensively cross-referenced, while web links supplement the entries. It is an indispensable guide for undergraduate students of media and communication studies, and also for those taking related subjects such as television studies, video production, communication design, visual communication, marketing communications, semiotics, and cultural studies.

“Only connect” is the guiding principle of this remarkable work-not only a dictionary of communication and media but also a liberal education that enables users to see interesting relationships between many of the concepts it discussesWritten in an accessible style, authoritative and up-to-date, this new edition of The Oxford Dictionary of Media and Communication is a path breaking work and an essential reference tool. * Arthur Asa Berger *
