Connie Book, associate dean of the School of Communications, is quoted in a Denver Post story about the effect new high definition television technology will have on family viewing habits. Book is the author of “Digital Television: DTV
and the Consumer,” the first book to focus on consumers’ needs during
the nation’s transition to digital television and the emerging digital
TV technologies. She received four grants from the National Association of Broadcasters to study consumers’ digital TV habits, and studied the transition
to digital television for eight years, working with Capitol
Broadcasting in Raleigh, N.C., which pioneered the development of high
definition technology. She was part of the team that tested the first
HDTV sets ever produced, and studied the reactions of viewers who
experienced high definition television in their homes.
