Media history as a book category covers the study of how communication technologies, institutions, practices and audiences have developed and shaped societies over time. It includes histories of print, photography, cinema, radio, television, advertising and digital media, as well as biographies of key figures, institutional and industry histories, regulatory and economic contexts, and analyses of how media have influenced culture, politics and everyday life. Works in this category use archival research, cultural and social theory, and interdisciplinary methods to trace technological change, patterns of production and consumption, representation and access, and global as well as local trajectories of media. Suitable for scholars and general readers, media history books illuminate how past media forms and choices continue to affect how we communicate, understand information, and experience the world today.
