Synopsis

A provocative look at how popular TV programmes shape and influence our moral and spiritual outlook, "Watching What We Watch" attempts to educate our vision and alert us to the values underlying popular TV shows. It has been estimated that an average viewer devotes some eight years over a lifetime to gazing at a TV - this text helps to ensure that these are not wasted years. Combining the expertise of scholars in the fields of theology, communications and visual literacy, this text aims to help viewers develop a more informed awareness of how TV can affect their lives - for good or ill.
