The author explores what selfies mean and do, why people love and hate them, and what it reveals about collective cultural values and social norms. She considers the different meanings of selfies within the wider context of social media, selfies as a practice of self-expression, why people take and like selfies, how selfies are neither the first nor the only technologically mediated practice with strong reactions by people, and how they are neither "good" nor "bad" and do not have a universal meaning. She discusses selfies in the context of history and technology by looking at previous versions of image making and information-sharing that are like selfies; how selfies have multiple functions and meanings; and how they make people feel and why they have the power to make people feel anything, addressing their related cultural stories and social norms and challenging the idea that they are narcissistic, inauthentic or low-quality photography, or empowering, showing how they are a part of feeling judged or in control. She ends with discussion of how the selfie has become a metaphor for various phenomena and practices, as well as its future., This deceptively slim volume offers a deeper and more nuanced dive into its topic than many realize selfies deserve, revealing the form to be steeped in histories - of art, of photography, of technology - and contemporary attitudes toward gender, youth, and bodies. Remarkably clear, full of examples, and fun to read, this book is essential for anyone interested in popular culture.

Product is 95% alike picture but a little more blurry. Controller play well but had a notice from psn that my joypad wasn't authentic and could by problematic🤷‍♂️ no trouble so far! Shipping was fast but no tracking and worst packaging ever.. like the box came banged up... send a question to seller never had a reply 😅.... Good product overall, excellent price, fast shipping, wrapped only on 4 sides out of 6, no tracking and never reply... 4★ product / 2★ seller ✌️

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
