I just received an EXCELLENT new book titled _Teleliteracy: Taking Television Seriously_ by David Bianculli, published by Continuum Publishing Co. of NY. David is a TV critic for the Philadelphia Inquirer and the NY Post, and he spoke in my honors class on TV and the military last year, at which time the book was in the works. It is a fascinating and somewhat iconoclastic look at television's place in American society. I'd use it in a minute if I were offering an electronic media course. I highly recommend anyone interested in media and society to check it out.
