Reviews
'Moran has pioneered the study of television programme franchising...and his new study shows how format adaptation enabled one television producer to punch well above his weight in the global programme-making industry' 'Though in many ways Australian, the story spreads its relevance and interest well beyond Australia, casting light on protagonists, flows and processes of transnationalization that concern contemporary television everywhere. The unique requisite of being the fruit of a long-lasting passionate research, the analytical clarity and the broadly contextualizing narrative, make Moran's book an essential reference and a model for future works of comparable ambition.' 'The career of the Australian media mogul Reg Grundy is one of the great, untold stories of contemporary media history. ... While Grundy began in Australia his influence was truly global. This fascinating and immensely readable study will be of great interest to students, scholars and researchers of media. ' 'This book is essential reading for understanding the global market in television programs and how it might develop'
