Rezensionen

'Chapters 1-5 are really, really useful. They cover just about every situation you can come across in interviewing. Students enjoy learning all the ways of interpreting expressions, positions, words, and so on, and I can use interviews from the internet to illustrate and get the class to video their own interviews and look out for these things... Interviewing for the internet is far too short and needs updating, and the chapter on note-taking and recording is way out of date... It's actually the only journalism skills book I ask students to buy.' Judith Clarke, Department of Journalism, Hong Kong Baptist University, China



'The book is fairly basic, ideal for my first-year students. It sets out the idea of interviewing and goes through various scenarios, telling students not only how to take notes, check quotes etc., but also the personality traits required to do a good interview, such as determination and persistence... It would help to have more first-person scenarios to keep readers' interest as they read the text, as well as exercises that the reader can do in their own time.' Wendy Sloane, London Metropolitan, UK
