    <![CDATA[Cure for cancer? End to world hunger? What's left to do after the publication of Felice Newman's definitive guide to lesbian sex? Drawing on a wide range of published sources as well as her own notoriously graphic questionnaire circulated by e-mail--stunning mild-mannered office workers as it reeled across their computer screens--Newman has compiled an exhaustively thorough how-to guide for practices as exotic as play piercings and as pedestrian as oral sex. Along the way, she offers a primer in sexual politics and lesbian manners at the turn of the century. The S/M hanky code is laid out once and for all. There is even a (brief, happily brief) section on celibacy. <p>  Highlights include descriptions of sex writer Tristan Taormino's private consultation with Betty Dodson, the author of <em>Sex for One</em> described as &quot;the mother of masturbation&quot;: &quot;I was so excited about this adventure that I nearly peed in my pants,&quot; recalled Taormino, &quot;I was going to touch myself for Dr. Betty Dodson!&quot; (In the end, Newman reports, &quot;Tristan earned an A+ in pelvic thrusting, but got a big 'needs improvement' in the breathing department.&quot;) Although it sometimes skimps on the details, especially with regard to women's health, <em>The Whole Lesbian Sex Book</em> is so rich, inclusive, and authoritative that it invites challenge. Now inventive lovers can ask each other: &quot;Is it in <em>Whole Lesbian</em>?&quot; <em>--Regina Marler</em> </p>]]>
