Three themes guide this work. First, we are concerned with the uses by and influences of television on certain populations - children, the elderly, women, and minorities. Second, we attempt to go beyond the issues of violence and aggression to consider a wide range of topics. Third, we examine both the positive and negative influences of the medium as it is and as it might be.
