Reviews
"This important study is both an analysis of and a call to an involved politics. It opens the door to a far-reaching dialogue."
-Martin Duberman, Center for Lesbian and Gay Studies, The City University of New York
"It is in the process of coming out...Blasius argues, that lesbians and gay men create themselves-as new subjects, as the producers of new truth, and as agents of social change. Blasius gives a coherent account that ties together all these processes-from coming out to the emergence of lesbian and gay studies-and goes on to show the 'ethical' contribution that lesbians and gay men make to contemporary American society."
-Harvard Gay & Lesbian Review
"An engaging book that intelligently explores a range of possibilities in human relations."
-George Kateb, Department of Politics, Princeton University
