This history of the earliest years of sound recording?the time between the phonograph's appearance and the licensing of commercial radio?examines a newly created technology and industry in search of itself.

ISBN: 9780786422661 / Angielski / Miękka / 303 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. To today's radio listener, it is difficult to imagine the influence radio once held over the American people.

The author did live sound effects during the ?Golden Age? of radio. He provides many insights into the early days of the medium as it grappled with entertaining an audience based on a single sense (hearing). How the sounds were produced...

The Rise of Radio, from Marconi through the Golden Age
ISBN: 9780786423682 / Angielski / Miękka / 358 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. As the dominant form of electronic mass communication in the United States from the 1930s into the 1950s, radio helped to forge a modern continental nation. It fused myriad subcultures--heavily rural, ethnic, and immigrant--into a national identity, unifying the nation in the face of the Depression and war. Later, federal deregulation allowed the radio of the "Golden Age," 1926-1952, to devolve into a chain-dominated, satellite-fed plaything of Wall Street. Today, radio has the highest profit ratio of all the media outlets--and Golden Age traditions of programming taste, diversity, balance,...
