N2  - The whole World is watching: Mass media in the making and unmaking of the new left.  Is an intricate and fascinating story. In Gitlin's sustained, rich narrative of the events as lived by the movement and the events as imagined by the media-his prose supple, his style of thought humane, his frame of reference capacious - he has given us an original and unique set of insights into a relationship of obvious importance and continuing strain for mass democracy in the era of mass communications.
