This book discusses contemporary issues in mass communication as well as the history/evolution of the Nigerian mass media. It is a two-in-one book which discusses various issues such as how the digital revolution has reshaped the landscape of the mass communication, thereby changing several well-known narratives about the media. In addition, it takes a holistic look at the evolution of the mass media in Nigeria, a country with a very rich media pedigree, from the pre-colonial era to the present. The book is a rich resource that will be quite invaluable to students of media and communication worldwide and general readers as well.
