Book Synopsis

He also makes a potentially valuable contribution to loosening the industrial-political deadlock in the debate over copyright reform.



Review Quotes




'A superb book. This is one of the best analytical accounts by an insider of the cultural industries. Actually no: one of the best analytical accounts by ANYONE of the cultural industries.' - David Hesmondhalgh, Professor of Media and Music Industries, Institute of Communications Studies, University of Leeds

'For anyone on the front line of the on-going debates around copyright this hugely insightful book is an essential guide. It is at once a memoir showing how we got here, an atlas showing us where we are, and a lexicon telling us what our words and discourse really mean.' - Richard Mollet, Chief Executive, the Publishers Association, and former Director of Public Affairs, the BPI

'In this important and beautifully written book, an industry insider brings experience and research to bear on understanding corporations in the age of digitization. Wheeldon's understanding is itself cultural, and his lessons have wide application for how we manage and consume cultural products in future.' - Martin Parker, Professor of Culture and Organization, School of Management, University of Leicester
