On the Meaning of Friendship Between Gay Men (Paperback)

Is friendship more important than sex? On the Meaning of Friendship Between Gay Men takes readers beyond an exploration of gay sexuality into the importance of friendship, providing deep insights into a range of dimensions, including Mentorship, Spirituality, Survival, and Partnership. Leading gay authors offer a wide range of perspectives in this intimate and very accessible book. Other texts on the subject approach it from a more academic bent. But this one offers readers of all types an easy-to-read, enjoyable way to contemplate what friendship means to them. Seventeen essays grouped into eight chapters discuss diverse perspectives on the crucial and personal issue of friendship, or what Editor Andrew R. Gottlieb calls, "a family of choice." Contributors include: Eric Aoki Michael Biello and Dan Martin Jeffrey Dudgeon E. M. Kahn Neil Kaminsky Vincent A. Lankewish ThomasLawrence Long Ed Madden Jeff Mann Chris Packard Felice Picano Jay Quinn Frederick S. Roden Michael E. Thomas II Marc E. Vargo
