VERY popular culture!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
For anybody who is interested in studying contemporary popular culture, then Dominic Strinati's lucid and well organised book provides a perfect introduction.There are many areas in which his work does not necessarily prove conclusive. To a certain extent I was disappointed that, despite much academic rigour, Dominic did not reveal his own voice, particularly in the position that modern popular culture currently occupies in our modern social society. However, for somebody - A' level or undergraduate - who is looking for a well written and accessible account of Hollywood, the importance of genre, or the significance of 'reception theory' in current media and film studies debate, then this is certainly an excellent first point of contact.Thoroughly well recommended and wholeheartedly endorsed.
