Editorial Reviews

Review

Makes an original and significant contribution to lesbian and gay philosophy. It takes up a spectrum of very timely topics, including black athleticism, AIDS, and Prozac, some of which are hardly ever discussed by philosophers, and does a beautiful job of blending abstract and concrete in its attack on the dualism at the root of the oppressions of the body. -- Claudia Card author of Lesbian Choices
