330   $aThis collection examines the nerd and/or geek stereotype in popular culture today. Utilizing the media?film, TV, YouTube, Twitter, fiction?that often defines daily lives, the contributors interrogate what it means to be labeled a ?nerd? or ?geek.? While the nerd/geek that is so easily recognized now is assuredly a twenty-first century construct, an examination of the terms? history brings a greater understanding of their evolution. From sports to slasher films, Age of the Geek establishes a dialogue with texts as varied as the depictions of ?nerd? or ?geek? stereotypes.
