Book Structure
Each book in the series guides readers through three main sections, enabling them to explore and develop major themes within the discipline.
Section A: Introduction
establishes the key terms and concepts and extends readers’ techniques of analysis through practical application.
Section B: Extension
brings together influential articles, sets them in context, and discusses their contribution to the field.
Section C: Exploration
builds on knowledge gained in the first two sections, setting thoughtful tasks around further illustrative material. This enables readers to engage more actively with the subject matter and encourages them to develop their own responses.
Throughout the book, topics are revisited, extended, interwoven and deconstructed, with the reader’s understanding strengthened by tasks and follow-up questions.
