Full Description
In a unique, and at times highly polemical way, the author demonstrates how the media generally influences thinking and what kind of content they put into peoples' heads. He aims to encourage a better understanding of oneself, one's environment, and the world but above all, a better understanding of freedom, the condition of democracy - or dictatorship. This is probably the first book in the media and communication studies which, through scientific provocation, makes the readers delve deeply into their intelligence, teaches them how to use it, and allows them to decide whether they have a weak, average, or insightful mind. The book sets one of the most important trends: it tells how the media think and how they shape their audiences.
Contents
Politics and history, technologies and media, traditions and law, science, intellect and emotions, religion and faith, and medicine. This is a book about how the media think, how the world thinks and how one should think generally. In a sense, it is a compendium of creativity, and independence.
