Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Crossing media
Christopher B. Balme · 2004
45/100
👎 Skip It
A specialist academic volume on theater and new media intermediality from 2004 — it may have genuine scholarly value for its narrow audience, but it has no business sitting in a self-help pillar, appears to be primarily in German, and has almost no public reception record to evaluate. Outside a European theater studies library, this has very limited reach.
