An illustrated discussion of child health, society and poverty in less -developed countries, this book is written for the many people involved in health and development in such regions who have little time to keep abreast of the enormous and increasing literature in health care. The approach taken is to present each basic point or finding in child health through the use of a diagram, with comments attached to it. At the end of each section is a dialogue between the two authors bringing out and expanding on the points which have been made. There is a very extensive reference list and bibliography. It is very attractively presented and laid out to appeal to a very wide readership. It can be used as a basis for self-study, for teaching and for discussion groups and seminars.

Presenting a multi-faceted exploration of audience research, this book draws on a body of empirical work to examine the emergence, development and future of television audience research. In addition to providing an introductory overview of the development of audience research from a cultural studies perspective, the author questions how class and cultural differences can affect how we interpret television, the significance of gender in the dynamics of domestic media consumption, how the media construct the "national family", and how small-scale ethnographic studies can help us to understand the global-local dynamics of postmodern media systems. This book reconceptualizes the study of "ideology" within the broader context of domestic communications, illuminating the role of the media in articulating public and private spheres of experience and in the social organization of space, time and community. The collection contributes both to current methodological debates - for instance, the possible uses of "ethnographic" methods in media/cultural studies - and to new debates surrounding substantive issues.

We are living through a time when old identities - nation, culture and gender are melting down. Spaces of Identity examines the ways in which collective cultural identities are being reshaped under conditions of a post-modern geography and a communications environment of cable and satellite broadcasting. To address current problems of identity, the authors look at contemporary politics between Europe and its most significant others: America; Islam and the Orient. They show that it's against these places that Europe's own identity has been and is now being defined. A stimulating account of the complex and contradictory nature of contemporary cultural identities.

Home Territories examines how traditional ideas of home, homeland and nation have been destabilised both by new patterns of migration and by new communication technologies which routinely transgress the symbolic boundaries around both the private household and the nation state. David Morley analyses the varieties of exile, diaspora, displacement, connectedness, mobility experienced by members of social groups, and relates the micro structures of the home, the family and the domestic realm, to contemporary debates about the nation, community and cultural identities. He explores issues such as the role of gender in the construction of domesticity, and the conflation of ideas of maternity and home, and engages with recent debates about the 'territorialisation of culture'.

Media, Modernity, Technology: The Geography of the New

From best-selling author David Morley, this book presents a set of interlinked essays which discuss and examine some of the key debates in the fields of media and cultural studies.  Spanning the last decade, this fascinating and readable book is based on interdisciplinary work on the interface of media and cultural studies, cultural geography and anthropology.   Clearly structured in five thematic sections, the book surveys the potential contribution of art-based discourses to the field and offers critical perspectives on the emergence of the ‘new media’ of our age. Including discussion on the status and future of media and cultural studies as disciplines, the significance of technology and new media, and raising questions about the place of the magical in the newly emerging forms of techno-modernity in which we live today, this is a media student must-read.
