See No Evil: A Guide to Protecting Our Children from Media Violence

Resource Type

Book

Description

"Written by Madeline Levine, a psychologist and mother, See No Evil is a completely revised and updated version of the classic book Viewing Violence. Levine examines media from the child's point of view and specifically how it affects the thinking, actions, and feelings of children at various stages of development. For example, preschoolers are more likely to be frightened by fantasy programs like the Incredible Hulk than by a more realistic movie such as Jaws,. On the other hand, the movie Schindler's List may be instructive and appropriate for a fourteen-year-old, but traumatic and overwhelming for a youngster of seven. Step-by-step Levine offers practical guidance in selecting healthy and safe television programs and movies for children at different stages in their development."--Jossey-Bass
