"David Allyn's brisk history of the sexual revolution in America deserves a wide readership and considerable praise." -- American Historical Review
"Filled with fresh details, this is a strong debut from a gifted young cultural critic." -- Elaine Showalter
"Allyn has done a remarkable job of bringing together all the diverse strands of the sexual revolution -- from the principled and political to the purely hedonistic and outright kooky." -- Barbara Ehrenreich
"A useful and readable chronicle of the melange of activity and talk that changed American irreversibly." -- Todd Gitlin, Chicago Tribune
