The Rise and Fall of The British Press present a clinical and provocative overview at the past, present and immediate future of the printed newspaper. Mick Taylor appraises the historic and ongoing contribution of the UK press to the public sphere, with assessment of the relationship between the specific historical periods and the role of newspapers in illuminating and informing the public perception and opinion. Analysis is informed by charting the development and impact of competing media forms and new technologies, with parallels being drawn between contemporary issues and developments in both the press and wider society.
