This interdisciplinary collection brings together theory and public health practice to analyse three forms of radical sexualities: bareback sex, BDSM practices, and public sex. 'Mid-century ethnographers mapping the 'deviant', exotic, gay subcultures such as cruising, the baths and 'tearoom', could not have anticipated the civil liberties discourses that increasingly focused on the person and identities. However, the body and some sexual praxes retain a 'radical', transgressive seditious otherness. These sophisticated essays draw on post-structuralism, queer theory and other theoretical perspectives to provide a timely, nuanced interdisciplinary re-imagining of power and resistance of erotic bodily practices in contemporary discursive formations of 'rad' sex.' - Professor Anthony Pryce-Curling, University of Greenwich, UK 'Theoretically and empirically rich this fascinating book breaks through limiting discourse to reveal new vistas on sexuality for all. Astonishing.' - Dr Helen Lees, York St John University, UK
