Description:


In this expansive historical synthesis, Richard Butsch integrates social, economic, and political history to offer a comprehensive and cohesive examination of screen media and screen culture globally “ from film and television to computers and smart phones “ as they have evolved through the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.


Drawing on an enormous trove of research on the USA, Britain, France, Egypt, West Africa, India, China, and other nations, Butsch tells the stories of how media have developed in these nations and what global forces linked them. He assesses the global ebb and flow of media hegemony and the cultural differences in audiences' use of media. Comparisons across time and space reveal two linked developments: the rise and fall of American cultural hegemony, and the consistency among audiences from different countries in the way they incorporate screen entertainments into their own cultures.


Screen Culture offers a masterful, integrated global history that invites media scholars to see this landscape in a new light. Deeply engaging, the book is also suitable for students and interested general readers.

Solid Shelves
Style: 36inch 4 tier, Style: 36inch 4 tier
These are easy to install with the right tools. (STUDS ARE KEY) The only thing to note is, that when assembling the pipes, it takes patience for them to tighten. BUT IT DOES! DONT GIVE UP!!💁‍♀️ They are sturdy, roomy shelves, and very very stylish. The color is very spot on. The shelves in particular, function just as described.

Great when installed. Some problems
Style: 48inch 2 tier
The shelves are assembled and installed on my wall. I'm happy with them. They look great and are very sturdy. What prevents a 5-star rating? The instructions were poor. Not a huge deal as I was able to figure things out. The wall anchors that came with were cheap and (in my opinion) unusable. I went to Lowe's and bought some drywall anchors that were rated for 79 pounds and they worked well. During the install, I wasn't sure if I should attach the wall plates and assemble the shelves on the wall, or assemble everything and then attach it to the wall. Assembling before hanging was the way to go but it took two people. One other minor thing: The shelves are stained on one side an not the other. Since I have them high up on a wall, I'm looking at the unstained side. Yes, I can stain the unstained part, but it would be nice if they had just stained the top and bottom at the factory.

Beautiful Shelving Unit
Style: 48 inch 3 tier
The shelving unit is beautiful. It has not been hung yet, but I plan on using it to replace my entertainment center and hang my TV above it. I am so excited as the shelves matched perfectly to my furniture so I believe it will be a lovely addition to my living room and take up less space than the entertainment center does.
