Product Information
Richly researched and engaging, The Columbia History of American Television tracks the growth of TV into a convergent technology, a global industry, a social catalyst, a viable art form, and a complex and dynamic reflection of the American mind and character. Renowned media historian Gary R. Edgerton follows the technological progress and increasing cultural relevance of television from its prehistory (before 1947) to the Network Era (1948-1975) and the Cable Era (1976-1994). He considers the remodeling of television's look and purpose during World War II; the gender, racial, and ethnic components of its early broadcasts and audiences; its transformation of postwar America; and its function in the political life of the country. In conclusion, Edgerton takes a discerning look at our current Digital Era and the new forms of instantaneous communication that continue to change America's social, political, and economic landscape.

Reviews
A useful overview... [that] captures the technological, economic, and cultural sweep of an industry that influenced... what would become the Global Village., [The book] is meticulous and inspired. Devoted to television, it is richly resourced, eloquently written, and nicely illustrated., "This book is best seen as an update of Erik Barnouw's widely read and concise history, Tube of Plenty: The Evolution of American Television . Moving beyond Barnouw, Edgerton has attempted to craft a unified narrative that simultaneously engages some of the more fine-grained scholarship in the field.... A highly readable account of the development of a complex industry and cultural form." -- Michael Kackman, Journal of American History, "A tour-de-force narrative of more than six decades of American television and its impact on U.S. society.... An important contribution." -- Christopher H. Sterling, Communication Booknotes Quarterly, A tour-de-force narrative of more than six decades of American television and its impact on U.S. society.... An important contribution., "Positioned with the monumental works of Erik Barnouw, Asa Briggs, Christopher Sterling and John Kittross, Edgerton contributes a comprehensive study of American television's popular culture.... The Columbia History of American Television should be on the shelf of every television historian and popular culture scholar, as well as the non-specialist." -- Donald G. Godfrey, Journal of Broadcasting and Electronic Media, "Positioned with the monumental works of Erik Barnouw, Asa Briggs, Christopher Sterling and John Kittross, Edgerton contributes a comprehensive study of American television's popular culture....
