`Barker′s book is positioned as a comprehensive guide to the field of cultural studies, aimed primarily at those new to the subjectAnd in this it largely succeeds′ - Media International Australia
`This is the best general textbook that has been written on cultural studies to date. Barker covers an enormous amount of material. He explicates key concepts and theories in the field and focuses upon particular issues of contemporary interest. Barker is always fair in his assessment of contrasting arguments and alternative points of view. Cultural Studies will enable students to make sense of a complex, fascinating and vital field of study′ - Jim McGuigan, University of Loughborough
