- This 87,000-word monograph is the outcome of several years of sustained research. Totalling 9 chapters, it charts media and cultural events from early television households to contemporary mediatised homes. Four chapters comprise rigorous and original case studies of media’s domestic adoption: early television design, family-centred video gaming, the domestication of computer tablets, and the progression to today’s digitally connected households. The book synthesises a substantial range of perspectives to present a comprehensive and integrated analysis of the complex relationship between home, householders, families and media technologies. Empirical evidence and multidisciplinary insights are integrated to present an original broad thesis.
