From abstinence and abortion to sadomasochism and Viagra, this compact, comprehensive guide explores the complicated nature of human sexuality. Organized in five parts-including Feminist
Critiques of Sexuality, the State in the Bedroom, and the Future of Sex-it dissects sexual movements, explaining their impacts and origins. Veronique Mottier does not shy away from
controversy as she weaves feminism, religion, HIV/AIDS, sexual liberation and repression, gay politics, and more into one easily digestible volume.
