This fully revised and updated 4th edition of John Storey’s successful reader in Cultural Theory and Popular Culture provides a theoretical, analytical and historical introduction to the study of popular culture, and provides key primary coverage of fundamental issues in cultural studies.  Content has been revised and essays have been replaced and updated.  The Reader offers students the opportunity to experience at first hand the theorists and critics discussed in its companion volume 'Cultural Theory and Popular Culture: An Introduction', which is now in its 5th edition.  

The editor has also included fully revised general and section introductions to the Reader, contextualising and linking the readings with key issues from the textbook.  New readings include What Is This ‘Black’ in Black Popular Culture by Stuart Hall, Musical Jihad by Amir Saeed, Dr Who and the Convergence of Media by Neil Perryman and Genericity in the Nineties by Jim Collins.  The Reader can be used both in conjunction with, and independently of the textbook.

The new edition is essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students of cultural studies, media studies, communication studies, the sociology of culture, popular culture and other related subjects.
