Rezensionen
"Byerly and Ross not only advocate but succeed in integratingtheory with empirical data, and may inspire a few readers toundertake their own media action."
"The first comprehensive attempt to theorize women's mediaactivism and its relationship to social change. An inspiringchronicle of feminist interventions in media systems world-wide,and a welcome bridge between scholarship and practice."
"The essays are forays into areas of media studies whichwill only grow with the growing presence and innovations of womenin this central field of contemporary culture."
"A useful outline of global feminist media scholarship forstudents and practitioners. The book opens up new directions forfuture research, tempering an engagement with historicaldevelopment of women's media activism with attention to the realvoices and experiences of current activists andpractitioners."
