Reviews
""Attachment Film, Emotion, and Cognition provides a unique approach in advocating for studying film that traverses the natural sciences and the humanities. This positions the book alongside others that also draw on neurological studies to inform their film analysis and adopts a clear and forceful cognitivist approach to the study of 'attachment films.'"" --Stephen Charbonneau, Associate Professor, School of Communication & Multimedia Studies, Florida Atlantic University, USA ""The book's focused attention on ideas of social attachment, its consideration of frequently neglected but important genres, and its single-minded commitment to a specific model of cognitive study - derived from Bowlby - make it an important intervention in the field of film studies. Work on cognition continues to be a growth area in film studies, though arguably one dominated by a few key figures, among which Mette Kramer is now counted."" --Joe Kember, Professor of Film and Visual Culture, University of Exeter, UK
