Book Review 2

Media Ethics with PowerWeb

Media Ethics is a very useful introductory book for communication students who have the desire to work in the industry of mass media. The book is easy to follow, and it quickly draws the reader into its fast moving foundation of ethics. The book provides the reader a well-rounded grasp of the history and theory of ethics, it also makes them be able to think critically and have a better understanding of self.

Although the book is primarily for the ethical education of journalists and public relations students, it touches upon the very foundation of human thought and behavior. Therefore it is applicable to all. Real-life and hypothetical case studies follow each chapter, which are highly pertinent, thought-provoking, and up-to-date; issues each individual will no doubt face at one point or another.
