Samenvatting

Masterly survey of British popular culture just after WWII- scholarly but literate and readable. ".. a broad, detailed and perceptive description of a large section of the community - its culture, its habits, its traditions. Mass literacy has opened up new worlds to new readers. How far has it also been exploited to debase our standards and behaviour ? Magazines, books, films for the millions - has society benefited on balance or not ? (Half a century later, with even more access to instant media, these are still unanswered questions!)
