{"product_id":"generation-zombie-stephanie-boluk-9780786461400","title":"Generation Zombie: Essays on the Living Dead in Modern Culture","description":"\u003cp\u003e Growing from their early roots in Caribbean voodoo to their popularity today, zombies are epidemic. Their presence is pervasive, whether they are found in video games, street signs, hard drives, or even international politics. These eighteen original essays by an interdisciplinary group of scholars examine how the zombie has evolved over time, its continually evolving manifestations in popular culture, and the unpredictable effects the zombie has had on late modernity. Topics covered include representations of zombies in films, the zombie as environmental critique, its role in mass psychology and how issues of race, class and gender are expressed through zombie narratives. Collectively, the work enhances our understanding of the popularity and purposes of horror in the modern era.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Instructors considering this book for use in a course may request an examination copy here.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stephanie Boluk\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0786461403\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780786461400\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McFarland \u0026amp; Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/29\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 268\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.90h x 6.90w x 0.60d","brand":"Stephanie Boluk","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43992416813311,"sku":"9780786461400","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_33689c35-7167-41ff-afe3-5d73f3d696c1.jpg?v=1683318848","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/generation-zombie-stephanie-boluk-9780786461400","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
