Fatal Advice - How Safe-Sex Education Went Wrong

"An urgent and important work. Once again, Patton's usual brilliance is much in evidence--her irreverent and eclectic roving around different cultural and disciplinary domains, her perceptive readings of specific texts, her ear to various subcultural grounds, her wisdom based on personal history in the queer media and AIDS community movements."--Thomas Waugh, author of "The Fruit Machine"
