Cyberpop is an analysis of cyberculture and its popular cultural productions. The study begins with a Foucaultian model of cyberculture as a discursive formation, and explains how some key concepts (such as 'virtuality,' 'speed,' and 'Connectivity') operate as a conceptual architecture network linking technologies to information and individual subjects.

This is the story of my life from earliest memories to present day. I am male to female transsexual and as such have led a life of many ups and downs, most notably spending the best part of 50 years in total denial of my condition. I start my story on the day I told my wife why our marriage had been such a sham for the previous 5 years and admit that I am transsexual. The book progresses on two paths. The first describes my early childhood and development into an adult, getting married and having children. The second path describes my journey of transition following the disclosure to my wife. It details the process up to and including my Sex Reassignment Surgery in January 2010. It finishes with my receipt of a Gender Recognition Certificate and the issue of the new Birth Certificate with that all-important change of sex, which had been altered from the M on my original birth certificate to F on my new certificate thereby correcting the error at my birth and giving the book its appropriate title.

During the past decade, there has been an outpouring of books on 'the body' in society, but none has focused as specifically on physical culture - that is, cultural practices such as sport and dance within which the moving physical body is central. Questions are raised about the character of the body, specifically the relation between the ‘natural’ body, the ‘constructed’ body and the ‘alien’ or ‘virtual’ body. The themes of the book are wide in scope, including: physical culture and the fascist body sport and the racialised body sport medicine, health and the culture of risk the female Muslim sporting body, power, and politics experiencing the disabled sporting body embodied exhibitions of striptease and sport the social logic of sparring sport, girls and the neoliberal body. Physical Culture, Power, and the Body aims to break down disciplinary boundaries in its theoretical approaches and its readership. The author’s muli-disciplinary backgrounds, demonstrate the widespread topicality of physical culture and the body.
