  A history of how the sexual revolution changed life in America forever. A frank portrait of private lives and public discourse, it traces changes from the deceptively repressive 50s, to the first tremors of rebellion in the early 60s, the sexual rights movement, the revolution's heyday and even counter-revolution. Covering the growing acceptance of pornography and sex guides, the rise of feminism, the role of religion in supporting and later condemning the revolution, the popularity of partner swapping and alternative sex scenes, the legal battles for sexual freedom, and the movement's intellectual underpinnings, the book offers an account of the wildest period in America's modern history.
