Description and Table of Contents

Description

A complete overview of this volatile subject, treating pornographic genres as cultural resources, sorting out issues, illuminating controversies, and framing the debate. From the prosecution of birth control information as indecent to the explicit sexual offerings on the Internet, sexual expression and pornography have always been part of American culture. Today, conservatives and feminists fight, and the Supreme Court protects this $8 billion industry. * Biographical sketches focus on noted figures in the controversy such as Lenny Bruce, Andrea Dworkin, and Larry Flynt * Includes a chronology, facts and statistics, and a listing of organizations on both sides of the issue
