 >From the blurb: /Cognitive Film and Media Ethics/ provides a 
grounding in the use of cognitive science to address key questions in 
film, television and screen media ethics. This book extends past works 
in cognitive media studies to answer normative and ethically 
prescriptive questions: what could make media morally good or bad, and 
what, then, are the respective responsibilities of media producers and 
consumers? Moss-Wellington makes a primary claim that normative 
propositions are a kind of rigour, in that they force media theorists to 
draw more active ought conclusions from descriptive is arguments. 
/Cognitive Film and Media Ethics/ presents the rigours of normative 
reasoning, cognitive science and consequentialist ethics as 
complementary, arguing that each seeks progressive elaboration on their 
own models of causality, and causal projections are crucial for any 
reflection on our moral responsibilities in the world.
