""Pornified" is rife with the tales of Americans experiencing a new level of sexual pathos, filled with snapshots of surreptitious lives: it is as compelling as it is troubling. A provocative book, sure to stir debate and reflection."
-- Alissa Quart, author of "Branded: The Buying and Selling of Teenagers" "A sharp rebuke to porn's glamorization."--"Los Angeles Times" Book Review
"An alarming, thought-provoking overview of today's cyber-sexual society."--"The Seattle Times"
"Pamela Paul sets out to scare readers about the effects of pornography on American society, and she succeeds mightily."--"St. Louis Post-Dispatch"
An alarming, thought-provoking overview of today's cyber-sexual society.
"Pornified" is rife with tales of Americans experiencing a new level of sexual pathos, filled with snapshots of surreptitious lives: it is as compelling as it is troubling. A provocative book, sure to stir debate and reflection. "Margaret Talbot, senior fellow, New American Foundation, and staff writer, The New Yorker"
Pamela Paul convincingly and sometimes shockingly details the effects on men, women, and children living in a 'pornified' world. Her book should be a wake-up call for parents and should change the way we view--and rationalize viewing--pornography today. As Paul makes clear, porn is not 'cool, ' or 'liberating, ' or basically benign. It is a poison eroding relationships between men and women and darkening our children's horizons. "Judith Warner, author of Perfect Madness"
This is a quietly forceful book. It helps everyone--from libertarian to moralist--by offering a common ground from which to proceed: pornography is one more alienating product of a consumer culture, and in some ways a particularly lonely one. By definition it is selfish. That doesn't mean it needs to be banned; it does mean we need to think about what it's doing to each of us, and to our shared society. "Bill McKibben, author of The End of Nature and Enough"
