Recenzje

"Inspired by parallels and differences between the arrival of television in the family home during the 1950's and the present-day arrival of new media, the research is based on in-depth interviews and a detailed comparative survey of 6- to 16-year-olds across Europe and in Israel. The result is a comprehensive, detailed, and fascinating account of how these technologies are rapidly becoming central to the daily lives of young people."
