| Summary |
"As daily we ingest countless mini-narratives (printed advertisements, television commercials and programs, movies, full-color images, and the like), we are often unaware that, at the same time, we are absorbing imaginative proposals of what life is all about. These proposals need to be thought about and not just swallowed, and Michael Warren here offers a way of thinking about them and about what they mean. He provides a method of being able to pay attention to what we see and how we see, what we can accept and what we cannot."--BOOK JACKET. |
