Are you following a course in Cultural Studies at college or university? Perhaps you are taking it as an independent subject, or as part of a syllabus in Art History, Literary Studies or Sociology. If so, this is the book for you. It discusses such central theoretical trends as culturalism, structuralism, postmodernism and cultural populism. It is unique among introductory texts in the way it combines key themes, leading writers and summaries and handy revision material, it meets the need for a concise introduction to Cultural Studies as it has taken shape in Britain. It will be invaluable for students writing essays or preparing for seminars or presentations. Philip Bounds is a lecturer in Cultural, Media and Film Studies.
