We encounter media everywhere: Design determines whether we perceive objects and how we judge them and it corresponds in many ways with their content. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the world of media. The chosen perspective is holistic and sociological, historical and psychological aspects are touched upon where appropriate, and practical exercises complete the book.

Dr. Maja Tabea Jerrentrup ist Professorin für Neue Medien/Interkulturelle Kommunikation an der Hochschuel Landshut und leitet das Zentrum für Medienkultur.

Arvind Kumar Pal is Assistant Professor of Mass Communication an der Rajiv Gandhi University in Arunachal Pradesh, India. Research Interest: Mobile Journalism, Digital Media, Media and Economics, Radio Journalism
