"The Routledge Companion to Media Audiences captures the ways in which audiences and audience researchers are adapting to emerging social, cultural, market, technical and environmental conditions. Bringing together forty original essays, this anthology explores how our constantly changing encounters with media are complex, contradictory, and increasingly commercialized in the modern world. Each specially commissioned chapter by both early career and experienced international scholars, surveys new conceptualisations and constitutions of audiences, and assesses key issues, themes, and developments within the field. As such, this companion cements itself as an indispensable guide for students and researchers who seek a comprehensive overview and source of inspiration for a diverse range of topics in media audiences. The Routledge Companion to Media Audiences is an accessible, landmark tool which enhances our understanding of how media is utilised through advanced empirical research and methodological enquiry. It is a must-read for media studies, communication studies, cultural studies, humanities and social science scholars and students"--
