Abstract
This book fills this gap in the literature by discussing risk through the media. The multi-authored book Understanding Risks and Crises through the Media, edited by Bahar Kayıhan and published in 2022 by Cambridge scholars says that traditionally managing crises and risks was attributed to authorities, public institutions and policies. And people relied on central bodies for risks and crises prevention. The book also takes a worldwide view of using digital media by highlighting its influences, threats, the relationship between risks and media, and the effects that may result from appropriately or inappropriately using digital media in managing disasters. Although this book provides a substantial contribution to the field of journalism and communication, it also contributes to the literature of different disciplines in academia. It practically shapes our daily lives in digital societies since it talks about things people go through on a daily basis in their digital-based political, economic, social, and cultural communications and activities. And researchers, scholars and students whose interests differ from journalism, can get lessons and knowledge from this book on various issues pertaining digital media and risks and crises management among others, to enable them change their general daily lives. The book has limitless content for all in various sectors.
