This unique book is invaluable for all students of language. By exploring examples from magazines such as Cosmopolitan, Men's Health, Diva and many more, readers will learn how magazines: - use linguistic techniques such as puns and presuppositions to capture the reader's attention - combine image and text to produce meaning - convey ideological messages - construct images of the sexes through language.
Featuring a wide range of exercises, examples, and images, this textbook provides a practical way of analysing the discourses of the global media industries. Building on a comprehensive introduction to the history and theory of global media communication, specific case studies of lifestyle and entertainment media are explored with examples from films, global women's magazines, Vietnamese news reporting and computer war games.

A national bestseller nominated for New York Times Notable Book award and one of People magazine's 10 best books of 2003. In Louis Bayard's brilliantly imagined novel, Tiny Tim of 'Christmas Carol' fame has cast his crutches aside. Determined to cut his financial ties to his Uncle Ebenezer, he now spends his nights dredging the Thames for dead bodies and the treasure hidden in their pockets. One day he comes across a girl's body, branded with a mysterious 'G'. Then he finds another girl with a similar brand - but she is still alive... With wonderful characters, a compelling plot and the vivid atmosphere of Victorian London, this is a page-turner of a novel and a perfect Christmas read.
