Reviews

This book is an essential and long overdue exploration of the relationships between communication history and memory studies. With contributions by leading scholars in both fields, it shows the usefulness of a communication history perspective to understanding the dynamics of past remembrance and the present, at a time when such a perspective is much needed. It is an invaluable resource to anyone interested in the intersection of history, communication, and memory. -Keren Tenenboim-Weinblatt, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem Memory should be a central concern of every communication scholar, especially to those who work in communication history. Scholars who work in the interdiscipline of memory studies should likewise be concerned with work in communication (particularly communication history). Nicole Maurantonio and David W. Park have assembled a compelling collection that shows how much these fields can mean to each other. Putting together a stellar international roster of authors, they have curated a set of fascinating essays. I am aware of no better gateway to memory studies for communication scholars. This book should be required reading for anyone with a serious interest in understanding collective memory in today's media environment. -John Nerone, University of Illinois
