Description
Visual Culture: A Guide to Interpreting Visual Images This book explores how meaning is communicated through visual images in our increasingly visual world. It offers a unique approach to visual analysis, drawing together different methodologies to provide a polysemic understanding of visual culture. The third edition features over fifty colour illustrations and new sections on topics such as images of power, fear and seduction, video games, taste and judgement. A glossary and suggestions for further reading are also included. Written in a clear and engaging style, this book is an ideal introduction to visual culture and communications for students across various disciplines.
