Book Launch - Music, Music, Media & Adolescent Sexuality in Jamaica

This expertly researched book offers a rigorous examination of the nature of the relationships between adolescents and music videos, a much talked about but little researched subject. Music, Media and Adolescent Sexuality in Jamaica presents the views of adolescents themselves. It focuses specifically on their interactions with music videos and the ways in which this relates to their sexual attitudes, opinions, feelings and behaviours.

Written for a wide readership, including parents and adolescents themselves, this book is, however, essential reading for university courses in Cultural Studies in general and Caribbean and Reggae Studies in particular. Its relevance extends to Gender Studies, Communication/Media Studies and Sociology. This book is also a valuable resource for media policy makers across the Caribbean region.
