The book will serve as a sound theoretical foundation in courses on TV production and criticism, but it will also provide a useful conceptual framework for scholars and conducting research of television aesthetics. Comprehensiveness and good organization are also two distinguishing properties of this book as a whole. The book will be a valuable resource for educators and students alike. It is a significant contribution to the advancement of visual scholarship. -Visual Communication Quarterly
