"In the process of articulating the field's ideological premises, Brown introduces a series of criteria by which today's literacy projects can be assessed....they are the basis on which guidelines for media literacy of the 1990's can effectively proceed."—Journal of Communication"...a book that anyone with a serious interest in media education will want to own....This work should not be overlooked, but rather tapped. This is excellent advice."—Clipboard"This is a book whose time is not past, is not here, but is coming."—Stuart M. HooverTemple University
