Reviews

'Media Management Matters is a welcome addition to the media management and economics field. Moving beyond a pure academic discussion, the contributors examine the numerous challenges and opportunities that exist in both practice and theory. This thought-provoking volume should spur more discussion of the topic and generate new ideas for study.' - Dr. Alan B. Albarran, Professor Emeritus, The University of North Texas, USA 'Aiming at understanding media firms and the uncertain environment in which they operate, media management research builds upon theories from economics and management, media and communication studies, information technology, psychology, law and political science. It applies and develops these theoretical considerations with respect to real-life situations and developments in the media industry. The goal of Media Management Matters is to point to, discover, and support the practical relevance of media management research. Only a holistic understanding of the media industry can meet the challenges the complex and volatile media environment poses to media practice and research alike.' - Dr. Alfonso Sanchez-Tabernero, Professor of Media Management, University of Navarra, Spain
