Haworth Press OKs Same Sex Volume Previously Cancelled

Haworth Press, which had announced that it was cancelling the publication of a volume called Same-Sex Desire and Love in Greco-Roman Antiquity and in the Classical Tradition of the West because of objections to a controversial essay included in the collection (read an earlier post here) is now going ahead with the volume. However, it will not include the contribution that sparked the debate, Bruce Rind’s Pederasty:  An Integration of Cross-Cultural, Cross-Species, and Empirical Data. According to Haworth’s website, “It is the intention of the Press to publish a future volume (title and publication date to be announced) which will examine the controversial issues surrounding research on adult-adolescent sexuality in a fully-framed context from as many perspectives as possible, including Dr. Rind’s and those of his critics.”
