A2 Communication and Culture: The Essential Introduction (Essentials) - Softcover

Críticas

This book is confident, authoritative and reassuring: it is a key text for students and teachers alike. It is a must have resource for everyone interested in Communication Studies and is a welcome addition and progression from the AS Communication and Culture textbook. Alan Hackett, Head of Media and Communications, Campion School

This latest textbook lives up to its name – it is an essential introduction to many of the key ideas and approaches within cultural studies...it is indispensable and beautifully illustrated. If you are a student and you are going on to study Media, Cultural Studies, Sociology or English at university, it’s worth buying your own copy – you will find yourself coming back to it over and over again. www.communicationandculture.co.uk
