Praise for the 2012 edition: "This book highlights not only the diversity of sexual issues prevalent in the public discourse but likewise the importance of all things sexual to human culture . . . Readers interested in sexuality and its role in politics and culture will find something of interest in this eclectic volume. A great opportunity to discover new voices, new sources, and new information on the subject of sex." -- Library Journal "The essays here comprise a detailed, direct survey of the contemporary American sexual landscape . . . Major commentators examine the many roles sex plays in our lives in these literate and lively essays." --Erotic Readers and Writers Association "This is an exceptional collection of works - one worth owning." --Steve Isaak "A snapshot of current "hot topics" related to sex in the U.S." --SEXpress "Sober, serious, and though-provoking even when dealing with the most inflammatory of human issues, Best Sex Writing 2012 lives up to its title and is worthy of the highest recommendation." --The Midwest Book Review "A must-read book, regardless of which sex you like." --Diane Anderson-Minshall, Advocate.com, "I did not find one story among the 20 that was not worth a read. Best Sex Writing 2013 is, as its name boldly states, just that: the best." -- Washington Times Praise for the 2012 edition: "This book highlights not only the diversity of sexual issues prevalent in the public discourse but likewise the importance of all things sexual to human culture . . .

Best Sex Writing 2013 is, as its name boldly states, just that: the best." -- Washington Times "You're going to find something to stimulate thought and debate within these pas&pages; you may even find something that liberates your own sexual feelings." --Victoria Blisse "This edition has some of my favorite folks writing about sex (Patrick Califia, Melissa Gira Grant, and Madison Young!)" -- Feminist Allies "We as a community of sex educators, activists, workers--we as people--all have stories to share that are equally important. This is one such book that is as inspirational as it is educational, and it gives a collective voice to people and stories that are long overdue to be heard." -- Geeky Nymph "This collection of essays is, as the blurb on the back of the book suggests, 'challenging, literate and provocative'" --Jason Armstrong "Edited by Rachel Kramer Bussel and selected and introduced by Carol Queen there are a lot of very interesting articles/essay's upon the modern attitude to sex and the state of today's sexual culture. They do not shy away from saying it how it is and allowing people to widen their perspective. I won't pull out any single piece of writing because in all honesty I couldn't they all have their own slant on the sexual culture and all do it in their own unique and very interesting way." --The Gestalt Boudoir "If you want to stimulate your largest sex organ - your brain - grab a copy of this book and let yourself explore the spectrum of human sexual experience. You'll find it as enriching as it is exciting." --Pleasure Mechanics This is an amazing book. The essays are interesting and unique without being boring. They aren't just rehashing some of the old facts of the year. Instead, they're looking into the history of sexuality as well as seeing how these issues could change the future of sexuality too. All of the essays are well-written and enjoyable to read." --Pop My Cherry "You'll be as absorbed as I was by most of the essays here. Some are political; some are intensely personal. All are well-chosen and well-written. If you're a sex geek, as I am, you'll devour this book." -- Joan Price, author of Naked at Our Age Praise for the 2012 edition: "This book highlights not only the diversity of sexual issues prevalent in the public discourse but likewise the importance of all things sexual to human culture . . .
