‘Somehow it seemed to him the only thing that would really solve the problem would be to return to the sea and find the old ring with their names and the wedding date engraved inside, in 22-carat gold, and put it on again and then the world would magically return to what it had been before. Many years before. This did not happen.’ Thomas and Mary have been married for thirty years. They have two children, a dog, a house in the suburbs. But after years of drifting apart, things – finally – come to a head. In this love story in reverse, Tim Parks recounts what happens when youthful devotion has long given way to dog walking, separate bed times, and tensions over who left the fridge door open. Lurching from comedy to tragedy, via dependence, cold re-examination, tenderness and betrayal, Thomas and Mary is a fiercely intimate chronicle of a marriage – capturing the offshoots of pain sent through an entire family, when the couple at its heart decide it’s all over.
For over half a century, television has been the most central medium in Western democracies – the political, social and cultural centrepiece of the public sphere. Television has therefore rarely been studied in isolation from its socio-cultural and political context; there is always something important at stake when the forms and functions of television are on the agenda. The digitisation of television concerns the production, contents, distribution and reception of the medium, but also its position in the overall, largely digitised media system and public sphere where the internet plays a decisive role. The articles in this comprehensive collection are written by some of the world’s most prominent scholars in the field of media, communication and cultural studies, including critical film and television studies. Relocating Television offers readers an insight into studying television alongside the internet, participatory media and other technocultural phenomena such as DVDs, user-generated content and everyday digital media production. It also focuses on more specific programmes and phenomena, including The Wire, MSN, amateur footage in TV news, Bollywoodization of TV news, YouTube, fan sites tied to e.g. Grey's Anatomy and X Factor. Relocating Television will be highly beneficial to both students and academics across a wide range of undergraduate and postgraduate courses including media, communication and cultural studies, and television and film studies.

Why should they read this book? The writer raises an alarm, after 4 decades as an Educationist, wondering, if the Aspirations of the Founding Fathers are realized, by those to whom authority has been entrusted for the Divine purpose. Or have there been subtle shifts and switches that are neither Transparent nor Accountable. A tale of two women, the teacher and the taught. The one who paved the way, the direction of which she lost herself. Was this then a journey a transgression in transition. The water in a glass can quench your thirst, provided you have it. The water in the deep sea, can drown you, unless you can swim The water in the glass, cannot drown you, and the water in the deep sea cannot quench your thirst . Such is the complexity of life, what can save you, can also drown you, and what drowns you can also save you. What are we trained with, and what is ingrained in us. In our weakness is there strength, and in our strength is there a weakness. When does the actor within us become an audience, and when from the audience emerges an actor
