International communication is expanding in volume, scope, and significance. Academic study of this field becomes ever more important as new and challenging theoretical issues are on the agenda. This creates the need for sound, readable, and enlightening texts on international communication, and this book is a splendid example of such a text. Highly recommended reading! -- Cees J. Hamelink, University of Amsterdam New Frontiers in International Communication Theory undertakes a major reassessment of the field. It moves beyond the dualism of political economy and cultural studies, expanding the application of postmodern, poststructuralist, and postcolonial perspectives to an impressively global range of themes, issues, and debates, with contributions from both well-established names and rising stars. -- Oliver Boyd-Barrett, California State Polytechnic University, Pomona
