Book SubtitleA Critical Introduction
Editorial ReviewChristian Fuch's revised text should be mandatory reading for students, scholars, or anyone trying to understand the changes and continuity that characterize social media. The book is a smart, thorough and well-documented resource that should be useful to all. -- Janet Wasko A definitive book for all social media users who feel powerless and exploited, who long for dignity, freedom, and a more democratic Internet - illuminated, again, by critical theory. -- Jack Qiu Timely new chapters on China and on the "sharing economy" of Uber and Airbnb strengthen an already vital contribution to communication studies. Through the lens of critical theory, Fuchs provides the essential text for students of our new media world. -- Vincent Mosco
