From Batman to motor bikes, pop stars to internet pornography, this book examines the range of aesthetic criteria that goes into judging mass culture's most celebrated texts and objects. It aims to dispel the myth that consumers are unaware of quality, mindlessly consuming whatever is put in front of them.
