"The author studies the multiplicity of problems facing those who found newspapers in the countries of Africa, Asia and Latin America — The book concentrates more on the technical considerations than on the purely social implications of the subject — Chapters III and IV analyse in depth the establishment, survival and development of the press in the developing countries." (Jean-Marie Van Bol, Abdelfattah Fakhfakh: The use of mass media in the developing countries. Brussels: CIDESA, 1971 Nr. 2179, topic code 110.0)
