Summary
The feel-good place to buy books
Convergence in Broadcast and Communications Media by John Watkinson
Describes four core technologies of image reproduction, sound reproduction, data processing and communications. This book shows how these technologies operate together and the necessary conversions that take place between them. It demonstrates audio and video principles alongside the communications technologies: DVB, Networks, Telephony, and more.
'With the communications world almost totally digital in its approach and the various disciplines not so much converged as collided, there is great need for a volume such as this which embraces each area and neatly joins them as though they had always been oneThis is also a book you can dip into and just tease out the information you require, so no matter what your interest is you will be able to see clearly how it relates and merges, indeed converges with the other sectors of the industry. Anyone working in the communications industry should have a copy of this book on his or her reference shelf.' Peter H. Bartlett, Technical Manager, University of Dundee Journal of Educational Media, Vol. 26, No. 2
