520    "The media provide strong and persuasive messages about 
       the intersection of culture and gender roles. Given the 
       power of the media to influence and "educate" the public, 
       understanding media images of girls and women is critical.
       Featuring Females analyzes the portrayals of women in a 
       variety of outlets, including reality television shows, 
       films, print and electronic news programming, magazines, 
       video games, and commercial advertising. A highly esteemed
       group of scholars and researchers provides informed, 
       original psychological study, and their thought-provoking 
       findings address the ways in which aging, race/ethnicity, 
       body image, gender roles, sexual orientation and 
       relationships, and violence are treated in the media. 
       Featuring Females is a diverse and provocative volume, 
       exploring images and characterizations of women young and 
       old and inspiring discussion of the effects that these 
       representations have on girls, women, and society at 
       large. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights
