The philosophies of sex and love in this anthology do, indeed, feel new. [ ] In summary, this is an excellent collection of essays for anyone interested in the philosophy of sex and love and/or feminism and gender issues more broadly. [ ] In addition, the bringing together of such a range of authors should be commended. Not only are 75% of the authors women, they also come from a range of countries (including Canada, America, Australia, Turkey and Sweden). Further, they represent a variety of academic backgrounds, including social work and psychology, as well as philosophy, and there is a good mix of early career researchers and those more established. Given the scope of the questions raised in the philosophy of sex and love, and the importance of them, it is wonderful to have such a variety of voices speaking about it in one place. * Hypatia: A Journal of Feminist Philosophy * An eclectic and fascinating collection. Diverse perspectives and approaches are brought to bear on a broad range of issues concerning sex and love. The volume's aim is not to supply conclusive answers, definitions, or theories, but to draw attention to more (and subtler) questions, ideas, and possibilities. It is emphatically successful. -- Carrie Jenkins, Professor of Philosophy, University of British Columbia From a new reading of Platos understanding of erotic love to a scientific criticism of clichéd gender roles in heterosexual relationships, from a defence of polyamory to a discussion of the failed medicalization of feminine sexuality, theres something in here for everyone: a refreshingly varied collection of essays on philosophical topics in sex and love. -- Carol Hay, Associate Professor of Philosophy and Director of Gender Studies, University of Massachusetts Lowell
