This book explores; from a sociological perspective; the relationship between acting as symbolic work and the commercialization of popular culture. Particular attention is paid to the social conditions that gave rise to stardom in the theatre and cinema; and how shifts in the marketing of stars have impacted upon contemporary celebrity culture.

The language here is not for the faint of heart; however; it is more analytical and arguably unapproachable for less academically inclined readers. Traveling through the Kashmir Valley as I read this book; it has been helpful in understanding how and why things are presented in particular ways. Note that the Kindle version is poorly formatted (what are presumably footnotes appear as solid numbers; unlinkable; and detract from the text).
