Playing Doctor
Author: Joseph Turow
Publisher: University of Michigan Press
ISBN: 0472027573
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 472
Book Description
Playing Doctor is an engaging and highly perceptive history of the medical TV series from its inception to the present day. Turow offers an inside look at the creation of iconic doctor shows as well as a detailed history of the programs, an analysis of changing public perceptions of doctors and medicine, and an insightful commentary on how medical dramas have both exploited and shaped these perceptions. Originally published in 1989 and drawing on extensive interviews with creators, directors, and producers, Playing Doctor immediately became a classic in the field of communications studies. This expanded edition includes a new introduction placing the book in the contemporary context of the health care crisis, as well as new chapters covering the intervening twenty years of television programming. Turow draws on recent research and interviews with principals in contemporary television doctor shows such as ER, Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, and Scrubs to illuminate the extraordinary ongoing cultural influence of medical shows. Playing Doctor situates the television vision of medicine as a limitless high-tech resource against the realities underlying the health care debate, both yesterday and today. Joseph Turow is Robert Lewis Shayon Professor at the Annenberg School for Communication, University of Pennsylvania. He was named a Distinguished Scholar by the by the National Communication Association and a Fellow of the International Communication Association in 2010. He has authored eight books, edited five, and written more than 100 articles on mass media industries.

School of Freedom
Author: 獅子文六
Publisher: U of M Center for Japanese Studies
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
Freedom is a great thing, but it comes at a cost: this contemporary theme is explored in this novel set in 1950s Tokyo. The story unfolds among the lives of ordinary people, from the former aristocrat to the humble hobo, in the era between defeat under the militarist regime and reconstruction under an Occupation-controlled "democratic" order. A keen observer of both sexes, Shishi's characterizations go beyond their cultural milieu, evoking universal human nature and impulses. This novel is both refreshing and revealing in its dismissal of gender stereotyping, and in its depiction of the people of Tokyo pulling themselves out of the chaos of war.
