A timely study ... Disposable Passions' greatest strength is that it offers an incredibly supple framework for understanding not only our historical connection to erotic media but also our erotic connections to historic media ... It is, on all accounts, a highly stimulating and nimbly argued book that deserves the critical attention it is sure to garner. * Screening Sex * As the study of pornographies continues to grow and develop it is especially good to see new approaches to vintage adult film. David Church's book is a fascinating dissection of the appeal of vintage porn and what this can tell us about cult film, fandom, and porn archives. * Feona Attwood, Professor of Cultural Studies, Communication and Media at Middlesex University, UK, and author of Mainstreaming Sex (2009) and porn.com (2010) and founding co-editor of Porn Studies * Disposable Passions is an absolute must read for every porn studies scholar.
