Different Loving : A Complete Exploration of the World of Sexual Dominance and Submission

Rating:
Summary: Great for people who are worried about themselves!
Review: This book is fun to read and extremely informative to people who know little about alternate styles. A lot of good, rational people harbor some kind of S&M fantasies and beat themselves up about it (pardon the pun). This book can be a real godsend to them.

It describes many different things including spanking, bondage, domination, etc.

Is it informative for people who have lived the BDSM lifestyle for a long time? Well, I don't know. But I would STRONGLY recommend it for a person who harbors fantasies that he/she is uncomfortable about.

Summary: Different Loving : The World of Sexual Dominance and Submiss
Review: This is a rather dry overview. It features some case studies and interviews, but they tend to be somewhat superficial and limited. I didn't find much that was enlightening or exciting. This reminded me of an (A level) psychology text book, too clinical and too general to make this taboo and little explored subject come alive.
