Abstract
Four new factors have made the problem of homosexuality even more important than it was a decade ago:" The public has now become halfaware of the existence of information previously suppressed; the perversion has become more widespread… as a result of the dissemination of misleading statistics; a new… source of marital tragedy has been opened up by marriages of so-called'bisexuals' to unsuspecting women, and… it has recently been discovered that homosexuality is a curable illness." Excerpts from world literature, from case histories and from Kinsey's works are used in the book, which presents a psychoanalytic point of view.(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
