'It is impossible, within the confines of this brief review, to do justice to the quality of scholarship displayed by the contributors to this volume of essays ... Broadcasting Finance in Transition is an extremely useful book; the authoritative discussions by its distinguished contributor make it a significant book. For once, the publishers have got it right in their 'blurb' on the jacket: 'Blumler and Nossiter have produced an essential collection for broadcast policy-makers and researchers'.'
Bob Franklin, University of Keele, Political Studies '92
This book represents an important contribution to the crucial issue of the alternatives in commercial and public support of broadcasting in the US and Europe. Half of the reports originated with the Peacock Committee on Broadcasting in Britain and thus have an authoritative relation to policy as well as research. The Peacock Committee of Financing the BBC, a committee sponsored by the government, commissioned Jay Blumler to investigate alternative (commercial) ways of financing in other European countries and the US to answer the question of whether the BBC should allow some commercial support in its financing.

Much of this study, which addresses the issue of alternative ways of financing public service broadcasting in the USA and Europe, has been based on the Peacock Committee on Financing the BBC, in which the author was involved.
