Critics and audiences often judge films, books and other media as "great" --but what does that really mean? This collection of new essays examines the various criteria by which degrees of greatness (or not-so) are constructed--whether by personal, political or social standards--through topics in cinema, literature and adaptation. The contributors recognize how issues of value vary across different cultures, and explore what those differences say about attitudes and beliefs.

Terms of sale
Pictures
All images in my listings show the actual book being sold. Just after a listing is uploaded, ABE may show a "stock image". Stock images are often incorrect
Images showing Contents pages are optimised for clarity and are not a reliable guide to page size or condition.
Pagination
Paginations (page counts) in my listings show the number of pages actually in the book rather than the last printed page number.
ISBN Numbers
ISBN numbers are not a reliable way of identifying books, beyond author, title and publisher. Books published before 1971 do not have ISBN numbers at all. ISBN numbers in my listings show the number actually printed in the book or dust-jacket.
Right of withdrawal
