BOOK DESCRIPTION
You've probably heard of polyamory– expanded loving relationships, done openly and honestly. Maybe you've had caring feelings for someone else even though you love your spouse or partner as deeply as always. Maybe you're single; you want a committed relationship with someone; but you don't want to give up the freedom to date others with integrity.
Maybe you and your spouse or partner already live a polyamorous lifestyle – but sometimes you aren't sure how to proceed. Maybe the two of you would like to bring a third partner, or more, into your hearts and home as a triad, quad, etc., but you aren't sure how to go about it. Maybe you are already a family of three, four or more, but the complex interpersonal dynamics threaten to overwhelm you.
In these pages you'll find guidance about–
•what polyamory is and is not;
•communication, conflict resolution, and emotional growth;
•ethical considerations;
•sexual hygiene;
•children;
•wills, discrimination, and legal hassles; and much more
Whether you are well experienced with polyamory, or new at it, or curius about it, you'll find answers here, all conveniently arranged in numbered sections for easy reference.
The author has had many decades of experience living various forms of polyamory, including in a multi-adult household, in a polyamorous couple, and a secondary. He is co-founder of three local polyamory groups and has had workshops at various polyamory conferences.

BOOK DESCRIPTION
Its supporters call the nude beach a paradise - healthy, beautiful, liberated, removed from the inhibitions and deces of the clothed world. Its opponents condemn it as corrupt – a continual orgy of perversion and a destroyer of moral values. Is it either? Neither? Both?
This is an inside book at the nude beach, often told in the language of the people who go there. The authors describe those who use and abuse the beach, its physical setup, the day to day happenings and interactions, and the politics that threaten it. The fact that nude public places exist can mean many things to different groups in our society. Indeed –if the present affluence of America continues – the authors suggest nude beaches may well proliferate. Thus, the nude beach could be a vanguard of changing lifestyles. But whatever its future role, the nude beach is certainly a phenomenon of today... and that's hard to ignore.

BOOK DESCRIPTION
The Religious Right has fractured, the pundits tell us, and its power is waning. Is it true - have evangelical Christians lost their political clout? When the subject is sex, the answer is definitively no.
Only three decades after the legalization of abortion, the broad gains of the feminist movement, and the emergence of the gay rights movement, Americans appear to be doing the time warp again. It's 1950s redux. Politicians - including many Democrats - insist that abstinence is the only acceptable form of birth control. Fully fifty percent of American high schools teach a "sex education" curriculum that includes deceptive information about the prevalence of STDs and the failure rates of condoms. Students are taught that homosexuality is curable, and that premarital sex runs future marital happiness. Afraid of sounding godless, American liberals have failed to challenge these retrograde orthodoxies.
The truth is Americans have not become ant-sex, but they have become increasingly anxious about sex - not least due to the strategems of the Religious Right. There has been a war on sex in America - a war conservative evangelicals have in large part already won.
How has the Religious Right scored so many successes? Historian Dagmar Herzog argues that conservative evangelicals have appropriated the lessons of the first sexual revolution far more effectively than liberals. With the support of a multimillion-dollar Christian sex industry, evangelicals have crafted an astonishingly graphic and effective pitch for the pleasures of "hot monogamy" - for married, heterosexual couples only. This potent message has enabled them to win elections and seduce souls, with disastrous political consequences.
Fierce, witty, and brilliant, Sex in Crisis challenges America's culture of sexual dysfunction and calls for a more sophisicated national conversation about the facts of life.

BOOK DESCRIPTION
This is a book about America and about sex. It is about the men and women who shaped our sexual revolution. It is about the men and women who have lived it and are living it right now.
In a narrative as absorbing as a novel, Gay Talese intimately describes many of the people and events that in recent decades have influenced the redefinition of morality in America. We meet the prophets of the new sexuality: Hugh Hefner, Alex Comfort, and others. We meet couples whose buttoned-down lives were transformed by sexual liberation. We are privy to their thoughts, their fantasies, their actions as that transformation is played out against a changing sexual landscape. A landscape that includes the halls of government and the Supreme Court, as well as that remarkable sexual spa, Sandstone; the Playboy mansion; and the living rooms and backyards of suburban ranch houses.
In THY NEIGHBOR’S WIFE, one of the supreme reporter-authors tells one of the big stories of our time-a story in which we are all characters. A story that is surprising and revealing. A story that is told with extraordinary skill and drama in a book that is as entertaining and controversial as it is important.

Emily, Grace and Eli have been inseparable since they were children - the three of them practically joined at the hip all the way through high school.
Until now.
With the news that Grace will not be following them to San Francisco for college, Emily and Eli cook up a plan. One final send-off - a road trip to see a meteor shower at the Grand Canyon!
Though there is one problem. Emily has been nursing feelings for her two friends. Feelings she didn't even know existed until recently - and they are flaring up. Although she might not be alone in this.
Will their friendship survive this trip? Will any of them find love?
One of them?
All of them?
One thing is certain......their relationship will never be the same again.
