- Synopsis
- Christopher (English, European Business School, London) explains current times while explaining the influence of what went before. He specifies the contributions of individuals and groups and makes sure readers understand how they fit in larger trends, such as the rise of ethnicity and identity, the expansion of gender roles and the changes in social conscience and consciousness. Along with new chapters on sport, newspapers, and magazines for this edition, he covers the social and cultural context, language in culture, literature, theater, cinema, television and radio, popular music and fashion, art and architecture. He includes discussion questions with each chapter and a list of further reading. Although intended for undergraduate students the content and style make this text suitable for general readers.
