«In her well documented book, both cultural and philosophical, Dr Boodakian warns us against the danger of a society of auto-surveillance, a coded society where the individual has gradually and naturally internalised rules which make freedom an illusion, depriving him/her of being a 'subject' in the unknown (and rich) land of eroticism. In addition, she guides us with great panache towards this no man's land of the unconscious which separates the Erotic from Porn. -- Isabelle Pagot-Votelet
