"This book explores the changing and often ambivalent relationship between the three terms women, feminism and media in the light of recent debates. At the same time it places them within the broader discussions within feminist theory - about subjectivity, identity, culture, and narrative - of which they have formed a crucial part. Throughout, the book explores key issues within feminist media studies both through specific examples and via critical engagement with the work of major theoretical writers." (Publisher description)
