5.0 out of 5 stars Highly Recommended, September 25, 2005
By 
This review is from: Media, Home and Family (Paperback)
This book provides a fascinating approach to understanding the television viewing practices of families in the United States. The authors, using innovative qualitative research methods, did not limit their interviews to individuals, but spoke with entire families.

I highly recommend this book to any person who watches TV (that means most of us!) and anyone who is interested in how families make sense of TV, families attempt to restrict the viewing of children, and families incorporate messages of television in their daily lives.

Additionally, this book provides a great resource for college courses in Mass Media, Popular Culture, and various Sociology courses. I am looking forward to sharing it with my students next semester. The authors avoid the pitfalls of stuffy academic writing and instead compellingly relay stories that are relevant and interesting to us all.
