With separate sections for various users - programme managers, writers, producers, directors and actors - the book is a structured, step-by-step manual that provides answers to the problems they can face. The book focuses in detail on the `design approach' for determining and articulating effective messages that are contained in the drama. It draws on methods that have been tried and tested worldwide. In addition to a number of actual scripts that have been converted into dramas, it also contains useful appendices that provide sample documents of various procedural requirements as suggested in the book.
