"The editor freely admits the book is a snapshot, a 'spread of
impressions', but the range of approaches and insights are its
strength . . . these rich, varied and reflective, if not obviously
connected, articles add to fascinating discussion of how we listen,
what we got out of it and just what it is that makes radio, radio."
- The Radio Journal Since the rise of television, much radio
consists of 'capsule' news and music formats which are heard as
background to other activities. However the medium offers a great
deal more. This collection of essays shows how in North America,
the United Kingdom, Europe, Australia and the South Pacific, radio
continues to provide distinctive forms of content for the
individual listener, yet also enables ethnic and cultural groups to
maintain their sense of identity. Ranging from radio among the
primordial communities to digital broadcasting and the internet,
these essays suggest that the benefits and gratifications which
radio confers remain unique and irreplaceable in this multi-media
age. Andrew Crisell is Professor of Broadcasting Studies at the
University of Sunderland. He is the author of Understanding Radio
(2nd edition 1994) and An Introductory History of British
Broadcasting (2nd edition 2002).
