I argue that shocking works of pornography can unsettle not only students' comfortable understandings of sexuality, but…

Lauren Capotosto – Reading Horizons, 2024

In this study, a focus group interview was the preferred method of qualitative research. High-level readers who read more than 30 books a year were included in the study. Even though they read about 30 to 100 books a year, they…
