An introduction places this pamphlet by Richard Carlile in the wider context of 19th-century metropolitan radicalism and a preface views it as a forerunner to today's sex manuals. It is both a historical document and a piece of propaganda.

Reviews

A passionate protest against fear of the body; a radical challenge to ascetism; a celebration of the right to pleasure for a woman as well as men; and written in 1826! Carlile's is a classic text of sexual radicalism.
