Media, Gender and Identity: An Introduction explores how popular media shape our understanding of identity. David Gauntlett examines the impact of images and ideas presented in various forms of media on people's self-concepts.
The book considers a wide range of research and provides new ways to think about the media's influence on gender and sexuality. It includes case studies, such as movies like Knocked Up and Spiderman 3, men's and women's magazines, TV shows, self-help books, YouTube videos, and more.
A companion website with extra articles, interviews, and selected links is available at This revised edition of the book includes new case studies and a new chapter, making it an ideal introduction to the relationship between media and gender identities today.
