Yes Means Yes: Visions of Female Sexual Power and a World Without Rape

From the reactions of the large, mostly youthful, crowd I would guess this will be a significant contribution to the literature. A few older feminists in the audience were saying "we've been through all this...", but clearly the broader culture hasn't yet learned the lessons.
