Timely, Relevant Text - Highly Recommended
13 dicembre 2010
Di CMC Professor
- Pubblicato su Amazon.com
Formato:Rilegato
At this point, the textbooks that cover technology-mediated communication are sparse, despite having quite a robust research presence. This book, which I just used for my course in technology and communication, is excellent. Baym conceptualizes the work in technology-mediated communication in a clear, easy to read fashion. I feel in no way this text is "over the heads" of undergraduates. At this point, I believe this text is the only viable undergraduate text in the subject area (although I am going to try my hand at it too). I feel this book would help advanced learners, such as practitioners and graduate students, as well. Really an exceptional work that fills a HUGE gap. Highly recommended.

Clear, Readable and Reasonable

Di John McKnight

Formato:Brossura|Acquisto verificato Amazon
While Baym's work is highly academic, strongly grounded in theory, and chockfull of references to important works from a broad range of cultures (Finnish cell phone use? Politics of friending on Korean social networks?), above all, it's readable. I literally couldn't put it down, and I'll definitely want to use it as a text for undergraduates and graduate students alike.
Baym is ever-reasonable, balanced, personable, striking that fine balance of authorial presence between a phony and stilted objectivity and "TMI." Every concept she introduces is fairly, clearly presented, whether she agrees with it or not.
If you're looking for a good scholarly introduction to new media, or an STS work in media studies, or just an example of academic writing at its best, this is the book.

Accessible, understandable and insightful

Di P. Dalen

Formato:Brossura|Acquisto verificato Amazon
Dr. Baym is an academic and gives the reader tons of references to back up her points. As a lay-person with only a cursory knowledge of many of these matters I found the book to be completely accessible and diffuclt to put down. (What better compliment?)
Loved it.
Loved it.
