Would you mind if I recommended a book?

I can't remember the last time I recommended a book to any of you but this one seems appropriate.

In honour of the news today involving The News of the World being unceremoniously wound up I'd like to suggest a book on sociology and the mass media. It's called Power Without Responsibility and is utterly brilliant from start to finish. The most recent edition is 2009 and is available as an ebook (don't let that put you off!) which you can link to from here.

There. Job done. Expect my next book recommendation in around 2013!
