Clarissa Smith has achieved something special with her new proffering from her masculinities repertoire: One for the Girls! The Pleasures and Practices of Reading Women's Porn. Smith's text is groundbreaking, multidisciplinary and equally importantly - extremely readable. It is the last point perhaps that really sets this work apart, as One for the Girls! has a great deal to offer both the specialist academic and the general reader. Clarissa Smith's accessible style allows readers with little prior knowledge of critical theory, cultural studies or the 1980s pornography debate, to not only understand these discourses, but to develop a strong grasp of their impact in this context.
