Surveying developments over the decade 1992–2001, this book chronicles and analyses the salient aspects of the impact of transnational television on the television and advertising industries in three regions—South Asia, Southeast Asia, and Northeast Asia. Through lively case studies from the Indian subcontinent, Greater China and the Malay Archipelago, the author examines developments with particular reference to their history, geography, cultural policies and broadcasting history, as also the concurrent evolution of domestic commercial television in each country.

About the Author :
Amos Owen Thomas is an Associate Professor of International Business at the Maastricht School of Management, Netherlands, where he challenges graduate and undergraduate students to critique the globalisation of business and communications, economy and culture.

Review :
"First-time researchers in this area will particularly appreicate the extensive appendices and bibliography (fully 20 percent of the book)."

The book is well written and deals with a topic of great current concern-the role the electronic media plays at the international level in affecting the cultural, social and political lives of indigenous populations, particularly in the developing countries.
