Reviews
Professor Karen Dill has done a remarkable job in presenting the scientific facts about the huge (often harmful, sometimes helpful) impact that TV, films, video games, and music have on us all, and she has done so in a way that is engaging and easy to understand. Two additional aspects of this book are of particular importance: her science-based explanations of why most people believe that they are not influenced; and her recommendations for how people can takecontrol of the media in their lives rather than continuing to be controlled by the media industries. In my view, this is a 'must read' for anyone who is concerned about the healthy development of children and the future of modern society., "Our media saturated environment is cluttered with opinions about how the media affects us--or doesn't affect us--in all sorts of ways. It's hard to find a book by someone who really understands the findings in the large and technical media effects literature and can communicate that knowledge to a general audience in a credible and highly engaging manner. Karen Dill-Shackleford accomplished that rare feat in 2009 with How Fantasy Becomes Reality. Now with the media effects literature even larger, Professor Dill-Shackleford has written a second edition of this book which is even more interesting and engaging. This new edition of How Fantasy Becomes Reality is a must read for anyone who wants to learn what is really going on with media effects." --W. James Potter, Professor of Communication, University of California at Santa Barbara; Author of The Eleven Myths of Media Violence"Reading Karen Dill-Shackleford's revised and expanded How Fantasy Becomes Reality is like thinking through the most pressing, most enduring, and most interesting questions about the role of media in individuals' lives in the company of a really smart and engaging friend. With a humorous and easy-going style, she traces through the perils and pleasures of our media-saturated existence by providing thoughtful, fair, and clear-eyed analysis of oodles of social science data and an uncanny ability to zero directly in on its importance for our daily lives. I'd recommend this book to students, scholars, and engaged citizens alike." --Erica Scharrer, Professor and Chair, Department of Communication, University of Massachusetts Amherst, "Professor Karen Dill has done a remarkable job in presenting the scientific facts about the huge (often harmful, sometimes helpful) impact that TV, films, video games, and music have on us all, and she has done so in a way that is engaging and easy to understand.

Dill-Shackleford explains what the latest science tells us about how our devices influence our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

The wide-ranging conversation explores Avatar, Mad Men, Grand Theft Auto, and Comic Con to address critical issues such as media violence, portrayals of social groups, political coverage, and fandom. Her conclusions will empower readers to make our favorite sources of entertainment and information work for us and not against us., From smartphones to social media, from streaming videos to fitness bands, our devices bring us information and entertainment all day long, forming an intimate part of our lives.
