More About This Textbook

Overview

"Combining a comprehensive literature review with original empirical research on young people's use of new media, this book provides a fresh and in-depth discussion of the increasingly complex relationship between the media and childhood, the family and the home." We can no longer imagine our daily lives without media and communication technologies. At the start of the 21st century, the home is being transformed into the site of a multimedia culture. This book looks at the discussions around the potential benefits of this new media and asks: What impact are the new media having on childhood and adolescence? Are these technologies changing the nature of young people's leisure and sociability? And has the participation of children in private and public life changed?

Editorial Reviews

Booknews
Livingstone reports on a study designed to update that reported in Himmelweit et al.'s (1958), which examined the place of the new medium in children's lives then. Both studies were conducted at the London School of Economics, but significant changes in conditions and concepts prevented exact duplication of the earlier one. Among the perspectives are the changing media environment, the diffusion and appropriation of new media, leisure and lifestyle, the media-rich home, families living together separately, and changing literacies.
