I would take sections of both of these for a generalized class on CMCs, but I'm personally looking at these two books for a class I'm designing on new media - they take very different approaches. Deuze, Mrk ed. (2011) *Managing Media Work*. Los Angeles and London: Sage. This one's an industry insider's take on media industries. A good collection but I'm judging it to be an "only textbook" for a particular kind of class. Lister, Martin, John Dovery, Seth Giddings, Iain Grant and Kieran Kelly. (2009) New Media: A Critical Introduction, 2nd edition. London and New York: Routledge. This one is a broader introductory text, but I'm looking at it for a sociology undergraduate class.

I'm teaching an undergraduate course on computer-mediated communication in the fall. Can anybody recommend some recent textbooks or supplementary readings? You can send me an email at mwu@lsua.edu or just reply to the post. Thanks a lot.
