Summary: "Media/Theory is an accessible yet challenging guide to ways of thinking about media and communications in modern life." "Shaun Moores connects the analysis of media and communications with key themes in contemporary social theory." "He insists that media studies are not simply about studying media. Rather, they require an understanding of how technologically mediated communication is bound up with wider processes in the modern world, from the reproduction of social life on an everyday basis to the reorganisation of social relations on a global scale." "Drawing on ideas from a range of disciplines in the humanities and social sciences, Media/Theory makes a distinctive contribution towards rethinking the shape and direction of media studies today."--Jacket.
