- visual sociology as embodied observation
- visual sociology as semiotics
- visual sociology as an approach to data: empirical, narrative, phenomenological and reflexive
- visual sociology as an aspect of photo documentary
- visual sociology and multimedia.
This definitive textbook is made up of eleven chapters on the key topics in visual sociology. With teaching and learning guidance, as well as clear, accessible explanations of current thinking in the field, this book will be an invaluable resource to all those with an interest in visual sociology, research methods, cultural geography, cultural theory or visual anthropology.
