It can't understand as stand alone subject, because it deals with society and culture at one hand and technology at the other. Thus this book was needed that could give a comprehensive explanation of terms, concepts, theories and principles at one place. In recent times mass media has grown as a widespread industry which is working all over the world. Here in this book it is the sincere effort of the author to put the matter and facts, myths and realities all in a lucid manner. This book is designed keeping in view the average reader and beginners as well. This book will quench the thirst of knowledge in this field and it is the sincere hope of the author.

As social contexts and milieus undergo changes and get increasingly complex, journalism too undergoes transformations, and gets ever more crucial to the running of a society. In such a scenario, it becomes imperative that one considers the import journalism carries, and how the issues and problems in it are central to how we perceive the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Travel writers and travel journalists are not the same. They differ in identity, purpose and method. The travel writer looks in a mirror; the travel journalist looks out a window. The travel writer serves the travel industry; the travel journalist serves the public. The travel writer is subsidized; the travel journalist pays his own way. Introduction to Travel Journalism highlights these distinctions and offers independent, ethical, substantive journalists the skills and knowledge they need to cover the travel and tourism industry, to provide travelers with credible news and information, and to report significant trends and developments at home and across the world.

"The text's strengths... are on the emphasis on media history, convergence trends, and marketplaces. I also appreciate that the text is written at a sophisticated yet appropriate level for college students." -Kim Smith, "Iowa State University" "The material covered is essential to the understanding of the current student in today's media culture." -Jeanne Rollberg, "University of Arkansas- Little Rock" "Authors that forget that they are teachers and try too hard to pretend they're the students' friends don't do their content justice, nor do they model appropriate writing for students to emulate. Folkerts and Lacy don't fall into this trap; they present material credibly, appropriately, and yet readably." -Rebecca Lind, "University of Illinois- Chicago" "The overall strengths of "Media in Your Life" are that it is exhaustively researched and attractively presented. The broad topic of mass media is effectively structured into an accessible format." -Randall K. Pugh, "Montana State University- Billings" “l;The book's emphasis on knowledge students can use in navigating our complex culture is a major strength. Its organization is logical. It is well documented...It provides a solid summary of most significant media-related issues of the day." -William Lingle, "Linfield College" "The authors have a good framework to present an overview of the structure and process of mass communication in the U.S. The text is visually appealing and will attract students' interest." - Elizabeth Perse, "University of Delaware"
