`A scholarly lexicon and stimulating "rough guide" for cultural studies as it confronts and navigates the shifting sands of past, present and future' - ***Tim O'Sullivan, Head of Media and Cultural Production, De Montfort University* **
`I'm certain undergraduate and postgraduate readers will consider the **Dictionary** to be a highly useful resource. Taken together, the definitions provide a effective overview of the field' - ***Stuart Allan, Reader in Cultural Studies, University of the West of England, Bristol* **
`Any student wishing to acquaint her or himself with the field of cultural studies will find this an enormously useful book' - ***Joke Hermes, Editor, European Journal of Cultural Studies and Lecturer in Television Studies, University of Amsterdam* **
Containing over 200 entries on key concepts and theorists, the **Dictionary** provides an unparalled guide to the terrain of cultural studies. The definitions are authoritative, stimulating and written in an accessible style. There are up-to-date entries on new concepts and innovative approaches.
An ideal teaching and research resource, the **Dicitionary** can also be used as a companion to Chris Barker's highly successful **Cultural Studies: Theory and Practice**(Second Edition, SAGE, 2003) and in conjunction with his **Making Sense of Cultural Studies**(SAGE, 2002)
