telecom technology.'
Reader review on Amazon.com
'John Herbert has produced a book which has defined the pedagogy of
journalism in a practice world which has become virtually all
digital. He brings clarity to the process of journalism education:
learning, practising and managing. ...Students will find this book
inspirational and an important resource of reading and
knowledge.'

practitioners who want to maintain a leading edge over their
competitors."
