Meadow (emeritus, information studies, U. of Toronto) begins with an overview of the history of communication, discussing forms ranging from cave drawings to radio, television, and the Internet. Other topics include (for example) the attributes of information, the idea of a symbol, and the communication of meaning and understanding. Each chapter concludes with suggestions for further reading. Annotation #169;2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) Distributed by Syndetic Solutions, Inc. | ||
