4.0 out of 5 stars Stimulating, June 22, 2003
By David C N Swanson (Charlottesville VA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Steve Bachmann has published in "Simulating Sex" a collection of his book reviews and essays on sex, opening doors to a world of thought about sex in the United States at the turn of the millennium. Here Bachmann's backgrounds in art, law, and politics are brought together for a serious analysis of how writers and artists depict sex.

This is the same author who in 1987 gave us "U.S. Constitution for Beginners," a brilliant short history of the Constitution and its interpretation from the viewpoint of those most shut out of power and benefits  a book that should be in every elementary school. Bachmann also gave us, in 2002, a collection of essays on art by Bachmann and Terrington Calas called "Beyond NOLA: New Orleans Reviews of Art." The insights of these books are evident in "Simulating Sex," in which Bachmann diagnoses class prejudice as a source of sexual tastes and frames sex within Proust's description of extraordinary moments.

This book is useful both for Bachmann's treatment of familiar artists and for the introduction he gives us to artists and authors we can move on to learn from.
