By exploring the impact of space on class, this book addresses the contention that critical discourse has overlooked the way the built environment informs class identity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Simon Lee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1350193151\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350193154\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/25\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.74lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.50d","brand":"Simon Lee","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48484964335871,"sku":"9781350193154","price":40.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f0ca7cb5-34de-4056-922d-dd3844c5fd3e.jpg?v=1778047005","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-intersection-of-class-and-simon-lee-9781350193154","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
