The Book of Love is a radical guide to love, sex and gender. It presents the essential difference between men and women, explains why men and women have the problems they do, and how to overcome the fear, hatred and ennui that keep lovers apart.The Book of Love presents a new history of love, marriage and sexual relations, revealing the vast gulf between feeling and emotion, between sex and love-making and between the reality of gender and its distorted image in the ideologies of the world-both left and right.The Book of Love lays bare the deep reality of the word ’love’, it unites and clarifies the connection between the political and the personal, it makes sense of perversion, menstruation and man’s mission to define himself and it presents the radical difference between the institution and the sacrament of marriage.The Book of Love is an unself-help book for lovers, those with the passion and the courage to get past the self to the miracle of the other.

  • Language and Gender in the Military
    Edith A. Disler
    In the thirty-year history of the study of language and gender, theory and application have branched incrementally like the reaches of a family tree. The study of language and gender has progressed from an eye-opening review of differences between the 'language' of women and men to observations that language served to preserve 'domination' of one sex over another and on to a cr...
  • Online Intersex Communities
    Brian Still
    Once referred to as hermaphrodites, intersex persons are born with a sexual anatomy or physiology inconsistent with social expectations of what constitutes a normal male or female. Of course, this definition of intersexuality, like all definitions, is rhetorically charged. In other words, intersexuality does not have meaning in and of itself that can be separated from the cultu...
