Recenzje

"The reader is provided not with idle speculation about this contemporary social force but, rather, with a careful review of research from the classic work in the field....An excellent book for upper-level undergraduate students in child development and psychology, communications, and education. Because of its readable style, it is useful also to general readers concerned about television as a social force."
—CHOICE

"Condry writes well, the graphic presentations are particularly illuminating, and the original work he presents is informative."
—Journalism Quarterly

"...an important addition to our understanding of television."
—Communication Booknotes
