'As one would expect in a book written by authors of such varied outlook, no single vision emerges. But some fascinating material does.' Times Literary Supplement

'It confronts all the issues you're not supposed to raise in polite company. Read it and you'll have to revise many of your prejudices, while having one or two confirmed.' Camden New Journal
