The reference books for the initial test of communication theory and history are:
Introduction to communication studies
Duan Peng, communication foundation.
"Communication Theory" Werner Seffrin
Rogers, Communication History
These are the main books, all written by media teachers or published by Communication University. Of course, you may find many versions online, and the content is even more than that. I can only tell you that at present, the school official does not specify textbooks, and the so-called exam books are recommended by various candidates. This is also our conclusion after years of induction and research on postgraduate entrance examination.
Generally speaking, the comprehensive examination part is an introduction to literature and history, but this course mainly tests memory review. The book "Introduction to Literature and History" is very thick, and many contents are beyond the review scope of the examination syllabus, so it is unrealistic to recite them all. In addition, the comprehensive examination involves Chinese and foreign cultures and Chinese and foreign history, accounting for 75 points. The writing of political papers needs to be improved by other means, so it is not recommended to buy this book for review, which is inefficient.
The review difficulty of communication courses lies in communication theory and history, which should be paid attention to.
In addition, I would like to remind you that reference books are only teaching materials, and the postgraduate entrance examination involves its content, but there are both subjects and times. When reviewing, we should grasp the outline and review the real questions over the years selectively. Reading alone can't solve the problem. After all, the importance of each book is different.
