The book is written for intermediate undergraduate and beginning graduate students for a range of television studies courses.Specifically, Mittell discusses television within the following contexts: the economics of the television industry, television''s role within American democracy, the formal attributes of a variety of television genres, television as a site of gender and racial identity formation, television''s role ineveryday life, and the medium''s technological and social impacts. The topical arrangement and comprehensive scope of the book differs from other television textbooks, arguing that we must incorporate a range of economic, political, aesthetic, and sociological perspectives to fully comprehend themedium of television.
