During a period of enormous public interest in porn and censorship, Pornocopia's lucid mix of reportage and critical analysis has made it the definitive text on the subject. This new edition considers the increasing sexualisation of mainstream culture and contrasts the growing acceptability of porn in the USA with the censorious New Labour era in Britain. Including numerous interviews with porn figures like Paul Thomas, John 'Buttman' Stagliano, Juli Ashton and Chasey Lain, porn activists and the police, Pornocopia is also unique in being the first ever book to consider the role of the porn viewer, including cyberlovers sharing their intimate porn moments with the reader.
