This is a well-written and surprisingly balanced introduction to the ongoing controversy over pornography. The book begins with a history of porn and obscenity laws, then the authors introduces the reader to indivduals and representatives of both sides of the pornography wars. The section about whether or not porn can be an addiction and its alleged treatments went on too long, but other than that this was an interesting read.
