Rezensionen
" The Regulation of Sex-Themed Visual Imagery is a fascinating look at the global phenomenon of what becomes later in world history pornography throughout all of time, from prehistory and ancient civilizations in the East and West, through today's Internet and digital media environment. Lyombe Eko's book takes an oversaturated subject - sex and the media - and reinterprets it anew through a critically important global and historical, comparative lens." - Paul Grosswiler, Professor, University of Maine, USA and author of Old New Media: From Oral to Virtual Environments
