Even as it skirts the mainstream of contemporary culture, pornography remains a social taboo, and there still exist strong biases both in favor and in opposition to it. This anthology strenuously seeks to present a balance of perspectives on the phenomena of pornography in modern society, presenting chapters both pro- and anti-porn. Themes dealt with include the imagination, gender, power relationships in pornography, truth claims, and aesthetics, among others.
