- Double-weighted statement
- This is a single-author, book-length monograph. The first work of this scale on kung fu comedy films, it breaks significant new ground, covering some forty years in a generally under-researched area and contributing a range of theoretical perspectives for understanding this. It is the culmination of my engagement with the emerging field of martial arts studies, drawing on papers given in the UK and Korea. A rewritten section of chapter 1 was included in the Martial Arts Studies Reader (Rowman and Littlefield, 2018).
