Through interviews with scholar and essays evaluating their work, John A. Lent compiles a sparkling introduction not only to the different roads taken by these scholars en route to their discoveries but also to the critical byways that they have opened for others.

John A. Lent has been writing about mass communications, often with a critical perspective, since the early 1960s. The nearly 50 books and monographs he has authored or edited and more than 350 articles under his byline have dealt with media ownership, press freedom, media imperialism, NIIO, women in communications, transnationalization, Third World mass communication, and development communication, as well as Asian newspapers, broadcasting, film, video, popular culture, and comics and Caribbean mass media and popular culture. He is a professor in a Philadelphia academic factory.'
