by J. Macgregor Wise Lawrence Grossberg Ellen Wartella D. Charles WhitneyFor both undergraduates and graduate students, this textbook explores the context, history, organizations, and economics of mass media. Grossberg (communication studies and cultural studies, U. of North Carolina at Chapel Hill) et al. consider the media in terms of meaning and ideology, its power in the creation of identity, and with consumers, behavior, politics, and the public. They do not organize the text around types, such as newspaper, broadcasting, and radio, but rather take a theoretical look at the media in the context of society. The second edition has new statistics and examples, in addition to a new author who brings topics of cyberculture, globalization, and alternatives to the forefront.

An Age of Extremes (A History of Us #8)
by Joy HakimFor the captains of industry men like Andrew Carnegie, John D. Rockefeller, J. P. Morgan, and Henry Ford, the Gilded Age was a time of big money. Technology boomed with the invention of trains, telephones, electric lights, harvesters, vacuum cleaners, and more. But for millions of immigrant workers, it was a time of big struggles, with adults and children alike working 12 to 14 hours a day under extreme, dangerous conditions. The disparity between the rich and the poor was dismaying, which prompted some people to action. In An Age of Extremes, you'll meet Mother Jones, Ida Tarbell, Big Bill Haywood, Sam Gompers, and other movers and shakers, and get swept up in the enthusiasm of Teddy Roosevelt. You'll also watch the United States take its greatest role on the world stage since the Revolution, as it enters the bloody battlefields of Europe in World War I.
