Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Democratizing Global Media explores the complex relationship between globalizing media and the spread of democracy around the world. An international, interdisciplinary group of journalists and scholars discusses key and often contentious issues such as the power of media, the benefits of media globalization, and the political role of media. More than a critique, Democratizing Global Media offers positive alternatives, from peace journalism to popular movements toward democratizing media and public communication.

This collection of literature attempts to compile many of the classic, timeless works that have stood the test of time and offer them at a reduced, affordable price, in an attractive volume so that everyone can enjoy them.

LOCALITIES AND SITES. In the first chapter we were considering points on which we could expect to receive little assistance from our friends. They were essentially personal questions, but when we have once settled them satisfactorily, much help may be gleaned from the advice and experience of others. At the same time it should be remembered that no one else has exactly the same view of life as we have; and the greatest care should, therefore, be exercised to retain our own ideal and personality. Many, for instance, will be carried away by some feature in a friend's house, or effect in an old garden, and will endeavour to adapt their scheme to include it, too often with the result that the house is built round one feature, and that unsuited to the site selected. When the choice of site is under discussion, and all through the building of the house, our individual ideas and general scheme must be kept constantly to the front, or the inevitable result will be a patchwork of bits obtained from other houses. Although it is the keynote of many designs of recent years, architecture is something far higher and nobler than the cleverest patchwork. A SMALL HOUSE AT WEMBLEY, DESIGNED BY MR. H. FARQUHARSON.
