- Description
- Collected essays on how images of women in contemporary culture have changed in both positive and negative ways. Using examples from such modern motion picture, video game and TV fare as 'Buffy The Vampire Slayer', 'Xena', 'Lara Croft' , 'Tomb Raider', 'Barb Wire' and 'The Sopranos', this book poses the questions: are women becoming as tough as men, and if so, why?
