Since the late-1980s the rise of the Internet and the emergence of the Networked Society have led to a rapid and profound transformation of everyday life. In Philosophy of Media, Hassan and Sutherland explore the philosophical and technological trajectory of media from Classical Greece until today, casting a new and revealing light upon the global media condition. Key topics include the mediation of politics, the question of objectivity and technological determinism. It is essential reading for students of philosophy, media theory, politics, history and communication studies.
