Entertainment & Society: Audiences, Trends, and Impacts Shay Sayre, Cynthia King
Entertainment & Society: Audiences, Trends, & Impact is the first comprehensive, theory and research-based text for upper-division courses in entertainment studies. The book provides an overview of leisure and travel in our society in a way that no other textbook accomplishes.
