Consisting of historical sources and interviews with teachers, this work goes against the assumption that these are novel subjects and shows their deep parallels with more established fields. Essential reading for educators and researchers, the book provides a necessary framework for understanding how knowledge in these disciplines is taught and legitimized in schools today. \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"UCL Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47887751479447,"sku":"9781800082496","price":3535.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781800082496.webp?v=1781161207","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/knowledge-and-knowing-in-media-and-film-studies-9781800082496","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
