Among the contributors are Jane Caputi, Walt McDonald, Alberto Rios, and Kathleen Spivack. "Love and sex are the primary concerns of America at the end of the millennium: from soap operas to selling cars, from eating disorders to the most obese populace in history, Americans are filling their spiritual and emotional emptiness-their yearnings for relationship-with french fries, technological toys, recreational machines, and carnal fantasies. The media has sunk to the level of the pulp rags at check-out counters in their pursuit of scandal and titillation. But, despite the shadow side of the modern psyche, love and sex remain the indisputable keys for opening the doors to a new age of sisterhood and brotherhood,of peace in a global community."--David Johnson, Editor's note
