Book Reviews of Homophobia: A History
Book Review: A brilliant study with contemporary implications
Summary: 5 Stars
This book must have taken years to write and is worth eveery moment expended in its creation. Although another reviewer said it wasn't a page turner I found it to be one of the most fascinating academic studies I have ever encountered and after putting it down couldn't wait to get back to it. A historical guide that at the same time manages to be right up to date and sadly and frighteningly appropriate to our culture of the moment, one of its most painful implications is that human nature will seemingly never change. Will the attacks on our fellow man and woman over nothing ever stop? Read this book and form your own opinion. The book won't disappoint you; but it's message, brilliant but hardly uplifting, will certainly frighten you.
