Its media case studies, from make-over TV to online dating sites and quality television drama, are timely and illuminating, as the authors examine a range of examples from popular culture to demonstrate the magnitude of the politics at stake. This is an essential text for students seeking both an introduction to key debates surrounding gender and the media, and an understanding of how this powerful conjunction is constructed and experienced in the everyday world.\" - Deborah Jermyn, Reader in Film and Television, University of Roehampton, UK\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction: Gender and Representation  PART I: QUESTIONS OF THEORY  1.
