Rezensionen

"Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate and research
collections." (Choice, 1 September 2013)

"I highly recommend the all encompassing and widely
landmark book to any new and old media leaders, entrepreneurs,
corporate leaders, technologists, academics, students at both the
undergraduate and graduate levels, government officials, public
policy makers, nonprofit executives, and anyone interested in the
ever changing and dynamic landscape of new media. This book
provides insights and ideas that will provide the seed for future
change and innovation across the entire new and old media
environment." (Blog Business World, 16 March
2013)



"We are fortunate indeed to have this tour d'horizon
of young and middle-aged media across Europe, North America, and
Asia. It features an array of established and emergent writers
whose clear prose and thorough research mark out their
work."

- Toby Miller, co-author of Greening the Media
