- Explores the centrality of images to issues of identity and representation, politics and activism, and commodities and consumption
- Brings theory to life with a host of original case studies, from celebrity videos on Youtube and civil unrest on Twitter, to the lifestyle branding of Vice Media and Getty Images

An invaluable guide to analysing contemporary media images, this is essential reading for students and researchers of visual communication and visual culture.
