Useful, serious book

Understanding Global Media gives an excellent overview of the theories by which global media organizations can be critiqued, and it does so in a refreshing non-ideological manner. Also, Flew has organized his work well. He lets the reader know what to expect next. I do have one word of caution-allow yourself time to dig out the great information. Flew's use of language can be confusing to non-academics. For instance, at one point he writes of explicit and tacit knowledge. Had he used the word implicit instead of tacit, the reader would better remember. Nevertheless, this criticism is a minor point to a fine scholarly work.
