Each author probes the subject in a unique way....a certain quality of this specific combination of authors creates an irresistible tempo that urges one to read on....engaging enough for general readers, yet informative enough for scholars and advertising executives. Upper-division undergraduates might enjoy it most for its subject and educational value. -CHOICE In all, the book presents a contemporary look at an important media and cultural issue and would be appropriate as a supplemental text for use in a media-criticism, advertising and society, or media-sociology course for advanced undergraduates or graduate students. -Journalism & Mass Communication Quarterly This collection of articles provides an excellent overview of the wide range of research on sex in advertising....Sex in Advertising presents a well chosen collection of articles whose range and quality make a real contribution to the field. -Journal of Advertising Education A remarkable collection of essays has been assembled here, each of them deserving close inspection and mindful consideration. The worlds of psychology, sociology, neurophysiology, communications theory, art, politics, even moral reasoning, are examined in these pages, as a group of scholars once again make respectable that pulsating field known as popular culture. -Television Quarterly The work of Reichert and Lambiase is ambitious. Like the topic of sex itself, working with sexual appeals as one's unit of analysis can be misunderstood, rejected, or simply ignored. This volume represents great strides toward drawing together disparate research interests. -Communication Research Trends
