Editorial Reviews

Review


"Media Ownership and Concentration in Americas gestation period was roughly 10 years. It was worth the wait.... [Noam] is data driven and he has amassed far more data, over a far greater landscape, than any single work has before.... I highly recommend this book to anyone with a smidgeon of interest
in where we've been, why we're where we are, and where we might be going in the media competition environment."--Journal of Media Economics


"Media and Concentration in America is a remarkable volume. Noam sweeps away theories, claims, and innuendo, replacing it with a cross-cutting model and evidence and insight about the evolution of the information economy in America during a critical two-decade period. It is the best and most
comprehensive volume on the state of media concentration as of 2005 and nothing of this scope is likely to emerge again anytime soon. Researchers will find it extremely valuable to refer to it and build on it going forward."--International Journal of Communication


"Sophisticated and meaningful...[a] thorough, empirical investigation of market structure and ownership within the information sector. This incisive work is an important contribution to the public policy debate concerning the issue of private power over the media.... This important book includes a
wealth of data...that should guide the public policy debate regarding media trends. Highly recommended."--CHOICE


"Media Ownership and Concentration in America is a very important book on a topic of continuing controversy. A long-time professor of economics and finance at Columbia University, and a prolific author, Noam has worked on this study and its data for more than a dozen years, the result being a
vitally useful book on the ongoing debates about potential government control over media ownership... Unlike many previous authors writing about these topics, Noam brings the tools of both economics and finance to bear in his analyses and definitions. The result is a book filled with data and
insight that may help to change some of the ongoing debate in Washington and elsewhere." --Chris Sterling, George Washington University
