The new edition is a comprehensive and authoritative guide to researching media and communication to perform and analyze research tasks. "The key strengths of this book are built on clear explanations of the relationship of theory to research, the strong emphasis placed on practical application (the 'how to') of the methods and techniques discussed and the guidance given in relation to the stages of the research process." ?Liam French, Art:Design:Media (Higher Education Academy)

"This is an enormously useful text for anyone interested in an up-to-date guide to cultural analysis; it will be indispensible for teaching research methods in communication studies."?Hanno Hardt, Professor, University of Iowa
