Girls' Sexualities and the Media - Mediated Youth New edition
Kate Harper
This anthology provides exciting, innovative research focused on the construction of adolescent girls' sexuality in the media. The use of ethnographic data, in conjunction with media analysis techniques, provides a unique approach to the media studies genre, which tends to highlight an analysis of media content, as opposed to the ways in which media is used in everyday life.
