Abstract:
Since the growth of social media, human communication has become much more visual. This book represents the first attempt to analyse the images people post on a regular basis to Facebook. It includes hundreds of examples, so readers can see for themselves the differences between postings in a village the authors name The Glades, north of London, and a small town they name El Mirador in Trinidad. Why do women respond so differently to becoming a mother in England from the way they do in Trinidad? How are values such as carnival and suburbia expressed visually? An examination of over 20,000 ima.
