Books and Social Media: How the Digital Age is Shaping the Printed Word by Miriam J. Johnson
- Shows that social technology has changed what we can now think of as a book or publishing - this is necessary to engage with on publishing courses as well as contemporary/digital literary studies
- Many students, researchers, and readers are engaged with social media and with alternative types of publications and there is little work on it - this book fills a clear gap
- This book uses more traditional theory to read the newest technologies and publications - competing books tend to do one or the other.
