Jurists. By John Addington Symonds. 8vo. cloth. London, privately printed, 1901. $3.50
Limited to 100 numbered copies only.
For the student of sexual inversion, ancient Greece offers a wide field for observation and reflection. Its importance has hitherto been underrated by medical and legal writers on the subject, who do not seem to be aware that here alone in history have we the example of a great and highly-developed race not only tolerating homosexual passions, but deeming them of spiritual value, and attempting to utilize them for the benefit of society.
33 Anthropology. The Sexual Life of Woman, in its Physiological and Hygienic Aspect. By E. H. Kisch. Post 8vo. cloth. New York, 1916. $3.00
From the earliest days of the medical art this sexual life of woman has aroused in the leaders of medical thought the highest interest, and for this reason great attention has been directed, not only to the anatomy of the genital organs and to the diseases of the reproductive system, but also to the individual manifestations of sexual activity and to the influence exercised by these on the female organism as a whole.

In the domain with which we are concerned the French public are too much afraid of crudities and of calling things by their proper name. By veiled words and by indirect locution one may say anything, but the author decided not to employ such subterfuges in treating of such a vital social question with the seriousness it requires.

36 Anthropology. The History of Prostitution. Its Extent, Causes and Effects Throughout the World. By William W. Sanger. With numerous Editorial Notes and an Appendix. 8vo. cloth. New York, 1913. $3.50
A vice which has been co-existent with the human race, which has prayed upon the morals as well as the health of all peoples in all ages, which in the past has defied the edicts of despotism no less than at present it defies the mandates of repressive legislation—such a vice should not in any spirit of prudery be put aside as unfit for public consideration.
37 Sex Worship. The Masculine Cross and Ancient Sex Worship, by Sha Rocco. Traces of Ancient Myths in Religions of To-day. A Compendium of Sex Worship based on standard, rare and expensive works. Long out of print. With 26 curious illustrations. 12mo. cloth. New York. $1.00
38 Flagellation. History of Flagellation among different nations. A narrative of the strange customs and cruelties of the Romans, Greeks, Egyptians, etc., with an account of its practice among the Early Christians, as a religious stimulant and corrector of morals. Many illustrations. 8vo. cloth. New York, 1903. $1.50
