'Most writers on sexuality adopt one of three possible approaches: the biological, the psychological, and the social and historical. Rarely do they meet. The genius of Philip Graham's book is that it consciously and conscientiously uses all three approaches to illuminate in new ways the question of men and their sexualities. The result is an encyclopaedic overview of the debates, and a lively and stimulating contribution to our knowledge.' Jeffrey Weeks, Emeritus Professor of Sociology, South Bank University, London, and author of Sexuality, 4th edition
