Review
-- Richard E. Cytowic, "Washington Post"
" Simon LeVay's review of what causes' homosexuality will be widely regarded as authoritative because it is thorough and fair. He not only lays out the sometimes conflicting evidence but also takes pains to assess the science as good or sloppy and to judge the assumptions behind theories. And it is wonderful to encounter a scientist who writes beautifully." -- Richard E. Cytowic, "Washington Post"
