This book by Stylianos Papathanassopoulos is a treasury of information and of carefully set out argument ... For students of the media system, it is invaluable and has no substitute." Times Higher Education SupplementEuropean Television in the Digital Age provides a well-informed, well-researched and comprehensive overview of the issues and the dynamics that impact on European television systems at the beginning of the 21st Century. By charting the key moments in the development of the television industry in the last century, it provides a sound foundation for understanding the present state of the industry as it faces the challenge of digital television. This book will be essential reading for all those who want to better understand the recent past, the present and the prospects for the future of the television industry in Europe." Ralph Negrine, Director, Centre for Mass Communication Research, University of Leicester"Stylianos Papathanassopoulos has achieved the near-impossible feat of providing a survey and assessment of issues and developments in West European television that manages to be integrated, inclusive and detailed at the same time. It does justice to the considerable diversity of the European television scene, while highlighting shared circumstances and underlying dynamics. There is presently no more authoritative guide to this complex topic and unlikely to be one for the foreseeable future. It has a story to tell as well as a fund of information to offer."
