Books Lull’s first book, Popular Music and Communication (1987), helped establish popular music as a form of human communication within the academic field of communication studies. A revised second edition of the edited volume was published in 1992. His second book, World Families Watch Television (1988), is a collection of ethnographic studies that discuss how television influences the family, and how families use television within diverse cultural contexts. His third book, Inside Family Viewing: Ethnographic Research on Television’s Audiences (1990), presents a collection of Lull’s essays on qualitative media audience research. The volume includes the article, “The Social Uses of Television,” which addresses how people actively engage television as a personal, social, and cultural resource. One year later, he published China Turned On:Television, Reform, and Resistance an audience-based empirical analysis of the role of television in China’s modernization. Lull’s next project was Media, Communication, Culture: A Global Approach (1995) which explored how ideology, hegemony, and consciousness interact with human agency in everyday life across a range of global cultures. An expanded and revised second edition of that volume was published in 2000 where theoretical concepts including zones of indeterminacy, cultural programming, and superculture were introduced. A co-edited volume, Media Scandals: Morality and Desire in the Popular Culture Marketplace, was published in 1997. Another edited book, Culture in the Communication Age, followed in 2001. Three editions of James Lull’s multimedia book for college courses, Public Speaking: The Evolving Art, have been published since 2007. Professor Lull’s theoretical work became directly focused on the role of communication in shaping human evolution with publication of Culture-on-Demand: Communication in a Crisis World in 2007. In that volume, Lull also discusses cultural contradictions in global communication and depicts religious ideology and fundamentalism as barriers to global communication. A 2012
