“Critical Terms for Media Studies offers not simply a collection of critical terms, but a paradigm-shifting rethinking of the field itself. It represents an extremely important approach to media in the twenty-first century, one that will become increasingly relevant as the ubiquity of new media and new technologies make the questions it raises more and more pressing. The book is a definitive and defining statement about the future shape and direction of media studies.”—Charlie Gere, author of Digital Culture. The books in this subject catalog are not all the books published by the University of Chicago Press in this field, but only our most recent and important books.
