Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

The aim of this book is to extend the political and the intellectual concerns of cultural studies to include the realm of social experience. From rap to rave, from menswear to 'Marie Claire', from rock to sex tourism, each essay tackles issues of ideology, bodies, power and gender in contemporary popular culture.
