Kelly Westphal on 20 Apr 10Lehman, Peter. 2006. Pornography: Film and Culture. Piscataway, NJ: Rutgers University Press. * This book is one of the most helpful for my research. Within it are 13 articles written by various scholars discussing the phenomenon of pornography. They address pornography culturally, sexually, and economically, and while they touch on religious and feminist views of pornography they attempt to remain neutral throughout their discussions. I think that when doing any research regarding pornography its important to understand it as a genre and from as many perspectives as possible. In that I find this to be one of my most valuable sources. Having sections written by various scholars that address pornography from all angles provides an enormous amount of background information without creating a bias.
