A podcast from the New Yorker about the history of The Joy of Sex and a review of the 2008 edition. Right click to download. Author Ariel Levy says that writing about sex and culture is like writing about money because it's "a way to talk about everything. When people talk about sex, they talk about what they feel about family, responsibility, and monogamy and their balance between their personal need for adventure and independence and security and stability." How true!
The hilarious accompanying slideshow can be found here.
