Media Theory for A Level provides a comprehensive introduction to the 19 academic theories required for A Level Media study.
From Roland Barthes to Clay Shirky, from structuralism to civilisationism, this revision book explains all the core academic concepts students need to master to succeed in their exams. Each chapter contains comprehensive explanations of the academic ideas and theories specified for GCE Media study as well as practical tasks, higher level ‘challenge activities’, glossaries, reference tables and revision summaries.
The second edition of this best-selling guide features:
- Updated and revised chapters and exemplars, reflecting the new A Level Media specification (AQA, Eduqas, OCR and WJEC).
- Overviews of core areas and potential approaches that could be taken in exam responses.
- Overviews of secondary theory that can be used in responses.
This book is key reading for teachers and students of A Level Media Studies and is also a useful resource for GCSE students.
Media Theory for A Level is accompanied by the www.essentialmediatheory.com website that contains a wide range of supporting resources including revision flashcards, worksheets and more exemplar applications of theory to current set texts.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
