Abstract:

Television viewing is the most popular leisure activity in the world. How do we make sense of the experience of viewing television? This is a guide to the history, genres, debates and concepts surrounding TV.

Students are helped to understand and absorb information with the aid of exercises including theoretical and practical group work, as well as work for private study.
