masculinity after the success of feminism, and the layers of
meaning in semi-public and private talk of multiculturalism and
ethnicity
- Traces its topics across a variety of media forms and texts,
including sports; detective fiction and police series; and
children’s television and games
- Clearly and accessibly written for the student, scholar, and general reader.
