This book empirically explores young people's practices and perceptions of sexting. It defines and surveys the various facets of sexting, and particularly addresses the ways in which sexting has been represented and responded to by the media, education campaigns, and the law. It draws on a substantial body of qualitative and quantitative evidence of young people's views and experiences of sexting, a media discourse analysis capturing the tenure of public discussion about sexting, and an in-depth analysis of existing laws and sanctions that apply to sexting. Sexting and Young People analyses the important broader socio-legal issues raised by sexting and the appropriateness of current responses. In doing so, this substantive book highlights the significant implications for future approaches to sexting research and offers recommendations for policy makers and the legal system.

It is well written and well presented with good linkages between chapters, which provide a clear and coherent interrogation of the issue."
