I recommended the old edition of the book to my first years this Tuesday! One of the few authors who I can associate with a specific book by name. – Dr Peter Beare, Course Leader, BSc(Hons) Media Production & Technology, School of Journalism and Digital Communications, University of Central Lancashire, UKThe first edition was a most useful addition to the available literature and I have seen it in use in several contexts, including as a textbook and on reading lists for national qualifications. It does, however, now need extensive updating as the author suggests, in order for it to remain current. – Prof Peter Beare, Head of Media, University of Sunderland, UKThis is a timely book, if not well overdue! The author is correct in her assumption that this will corner the market because there are so few practical handbooks dealing with media research aimed at media students and professionals. – Judith Stamper, Deputy Head of Institute & Principal Teaching Fellow in Broadcast Journalism, Institute of Communications Studies, University of Leeds, UKI think that that author is right in her assessment that the new edition should ‘corner’ the market. We do not recommend these ‘chief rival" texts at City because they are considered to be too out of date... I teach a relevant course which is part of the MA journalism at City University London. This book if it had relevant sections on to Internet research could certainly become a core text for 300+ postgraduates and 300+ undergraduates in the Department of Journalism. – Connie St. Louis, Senior Lecturer and Director MA Science Journalism, Department of Journalism, City University London, UK
