Media Convergence - The Three Degrees of Network, Mass, and Interpersonal Communication (Paperback, 2nd edition)

Klaus Bruhn Jensen is a well known academic and an authoritative and original author. There is a lack of good theory books for media and communications studies and the clear three part structure will appeal to students. Added features such as case studies, tables and diagrams to explain key concepts and a comprehensive glossary of terms will help steer students through complex material. The author is well-known for overviews and syntheses that join otherwise conflicting research traditions. The first part of the book presents an accessible history of ideas, placing communication in relation to key thinkers from Aristotle, via Immanuel Kant and Charles Sanders Peirce, to Jurgen Habermas and Richard Rorty. The second part of the book bridges technological, social, and aesthetic approaches to media and communication. The third and final part of the book includes sections on 'how to study new media' with concrete analytical examples. The book presents a sustained critique of Habermas' influential work on the ideal communication situation.
