Synopsis:
When the original "Joy of Gay Sex" was published in America in 1977, it became not only an immediate best-seller but also a classic touchstone of the emerging gay consciousness. British readers sadly missed out on this book, as no UK Publisher has prepared to take it on. This is the revision to that classic; since its original publication, not only has homosexuality gradually become assimilated into society, but the gay community itself has undergone a great transformation as a result of the AIDS epidemic. These changes are reflected in this edition. New York psychologist, and co-author of the original book, Charles Silverstein, has collaborated with Felice Picano on this revised edition. The book has three goals: to educate gay men about safer sex and save lives by showing the varieties of sexual behaviour still available; to address the many emotional and relationship-orientated issues that arise in gay life, such as long-term couples, one-night stands, loneliness, and growing older; and to serve as a general home reference on a number of diverse topics, from living wills to a short history of condoms.
