Why is it important?
The authors are well-known scholars from many countries and have come together around a common set of problems: the specificity of media and the diversity of the many channels connecting them.
Perspectives
It's an experimental collection. The methods used and the examples on which the arguments are based are individual to the writers. Thus the book can be taken as a casebook in the study of cross-disciplinary and inter-arts comparison.
