Jaguar and the Anteater: Pornography and the Modern World - Softcover
This remarkable study won the Canadian Governor General s Award for non-fiction. Arcand approaches the contentious issue of pornography as an anthropologist. He does not condone or condemn pornography but explains why it exists -- & in what forms & with what consequences for us. He takes readers on a tour of this modern & spectacularly profitable industry, & through the overheated judicial & moral arguments that it has generated. He explains the views of all sides in the feminists split over pornography s portrayal of women. A fascinating look at what pornography reveals about modern society & its anxieties.
