Listening in: Radio and the American Imagination, from Amos 'n' Andy and Edward R. Murrow to Wolfman Jack and Howard SternTimes Books, 1999 - 415 páginas Douglas reveals how radio has played a pivotal role in helping us imagine ourselves in invisible communities - of sports fans, Fred Allen devotees, rock'n'rollers, ham operators, Dittoheads - creating both deep cultural niches and broad national identities.
