"Drawing on the pioneering works of Daniel Lerner, Everett Rogers, and Wilbur Schramm as well as his own personal experiences in the field, Emile G. McAnany builds a new, historically cognizant pa

radigm for the future that supplements technology with social entrepreneurship. McAnany summarizes the history of the field of communication for development and social change from Truman's Marshall Plan for the Third World to the United Nations' Millennium Development Goals. Part history and part policy analysis, Saving the World argues that the communication field can renew its role in development by recognizing large aid-giving institutions have a difficult time promoting genuine transformation."

"Media for instruction can be characterized as big (expensive) or little (inexpensive), but research evidence suggests that whether a student learns more from one medium than another depends at least as much on how the medium is used as on what medium is used. Thus, this report discusses not only ex

ample programs and their results, but also considerations involved in choices among the different possible media. One conclusion which is reached, however, is that the inexpensive media have often been neglected because of the glamor of the expensive media." (https://files.eric.ed.gov)

n, by increasing the flow of information and its speed of availability and by bypassing the editorial process, can produce a less informed, rather than a better informed, public opinion, and may create tension due to hasty decisions. There will be technical problems of frequency allocation, compatibility of standards, and control of programs and legal problems of copyright and protection against commercial exploitation. Major artistic and political events will be viewed world-wide, simultaneously, reducing parochialism and xenophobia. Communication satellites will aid education, especially in developing countries and facilitate interlibrary exchange of information. They should also create a mutual flow of information between the developed and the developing nations. Information from the latter should cover normal developments in the news, not just crisis situations. An appendix lists participants. This document is based upon papers submitted to the UNESCO meeting of experts on the use of space communication by the mass media (Paris, December 6-10, 1965)." (https://eric.ed.gov)
