Stressing interpretation and experience alongside affect and sensation it convincingly argues that narrative is key to contemporary forms of cultural production and to the practice of contemporary life.

All of which point the way to a restoration of a critical – rather than celebratory – approach to new media. The scope and range of this book is broad, its argumentation careful and exacting, and its conclusions exciting.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
