On the trail, anything can happen. After secrets and betrayal
shatter his marriage, Josh Mallory seeks solace on the Pacific
Crest Trail, in the mountains of Washington. On the trail, he's
just another hiker. On the trail, he can outrun the memories. When
wild animals destroy his food, Josh detours through a small
mountain town. Missing hiker posters hang in the windows, and
residents won't look him in the eyes, let alone speak to him or
help him. Trapped on a mountain ridge beneath a full moon and
desperate for help, Josh moves on, only to encounter a mysterious
group who call themselves the Woodkin. Hoping for food, shelter,
and rest until he can hike back home, he soon realizes that he may
never leave the mountain alive.

Media Economics: Theory and Practice focuses on the basic
principles of economics in the business sector and applies them to
contemporary media industries. This text examines the process of
media economics decision making through an exploration of key
topics, such as industrial restructuring, regulatory constraints
upon media operations, and changing economic value, providing key
insights into media business activities. With the structure and
value of media industries changing rapidly and sometimes
dramatically, this text moves beyond a basic documentation of
historical patterns to help readers understand the mechanics of
change, offering insight into the processes reproducing
contemporary trends in media economics. Thoroughly updated in this
third edition, Media Economics focuses on the primary concerns of
media economics, the techniques of economic and business analysis,
and the overall characteristics of the media environment; and
explores contemporary business practices within specific media
industries, including newspaper, magazine, television, cable,
movie, radio advertising, music, and online industries. New for
this edition are chapters on the advertising, book publishing, and
magazine publishing industries. Chapters contributed by expert
scholars and researchers provide substantial discussions of the
crucial topics and issues in the media industry sectors, and
emphasize both domestic and international businesses. Offering a
thorough examination of the economic factors and forces concerning
the media industries, Media Economics is appropriate for use as a
course text for advanced media management and economics students.
It also serves as an indispensable reference for scholars and
researchers in media business arenas.
