Reviews

An incisive look at the role of technology and celebrity culture during the #MeToo moment and beyond. In key case studies, Lawson shows how 21st-century strides for women have been confronted by misogynistic backlash, enabled by digital platforms. A critical read at this pivotal moment for women's rights. --Andrea McDonnell co-author of Celebrity: A History of Fame
