Media Consumption and Public Engagement: Beyond the Presumption of Attention (Consumption and Public Life)
Nick Couldry, Sonia Livingstone, ...

Palgrave Macmillan, 2007

Contemporary democracies are based on the belief that media can deliver the attention of the voting populations. But in an age of multiplying media, political disillusionment, and time-scarcity, is this plausible any longer? This book addresses this major question head on, drawing on the voices of people from the UK who were asked to write diaries about their experiences (or not) of 'public connection', as well as survey data and comparative ...

If you haven't read a Terri Blackstock novel...
If you haven't yet read any of the consistently-superb novels by Terri Blackstock... try this one or any other of her books, and you'll likely want to read them all! Her suspenseful plots aren't surpassed by anyone I'm familiar with...not even Mary Higgins Clark, great as she is! --Ron Howe (a.k.a., Toby Martin, II)

Pinnacle, 1998

Enjoyable holiday reading
The first novel by Lelia Kelly is not an earth shaking renewal or a highly literary thriller novel. However... she does provide you with a very well written and exciting few hours of escape. Lawyer Laura Chastain is certainly someone I could enjoy in a couple of sequels. She is a modern heroine that simply tries to live her life as good as she can and is not too bothered with all the ...

Shows The Difference Between Faith and other Stuff
Dr. Price Has done an excellent job in showing God's people the difference between FAITH and the foolishness or presumptions that diguise themselves as faith. He addresses such practical topics as Life insurance, Doctors and medicine, Family decisions about tithing, etc. Dr. Price, being a Word of Faith teacher himself, helps us to overcome the extremities and bondages that can come as a ...

An enjoyable visit with old friends.
Those who love Dorothy Sayers should enjoy this book. Jill Paton Walsh is a good steward of Sayer's legacy, and the further adventures of Peter, Harriet, and Bunter are as satisfying as anyone has a right to expect. I sincerely hope a third Wimsey book will follow soon.

Series of stories on Nina Riley
I got my hands on the first Nina Riley series and hunted around until I had all ten books. I am enjoying them very very much. I would recommended the series to anyone who likes mysteries; but not overly deep stuff. Each book is well thought out and stands alone. However, I enjoyed reading them from the beginning.

Enjoy it anyway!
I don't know why this book is given such sad review. I think some "critics" take themselves too seriously and think that they alone know what makes a book a good read. Just remember that criticism is only opinion and rarely the last word in good taste. I checked this book out from the library and really enjoyed it. I am an avid reader and find that "critics" forget to have fun with a book. Don't ...

"Our Pal" is first rate
"Our Pal" is an outstanding and easy to read book. It covers a wide range of jokes, and will give you plenty of laugh-out-load moments. It's got something for everybody, but avoids tasteless and pointless jokes we get tired of hearing. Instead it offers real insights into the cultures and mindsets that gave rise to a very particular form of humor, as well as really interesting tidbits about ...

Fantastic series at a fantastic price!
I read the Sun Coast Chronicles series almost a year ago and can't say enough about Terri Blackstock's ability to weave suspense, mystery, romance and inspiration in such an entertaining package. In the Sun Coast Chronicles, there are four stories with interrelated characters in the same town in California. Each hero/heroine is forced to deal with something outside themselves, usually a bad ...
