Strongly grounded in debates within sociology, Kevin Walby's work reaches beyond its disciplinary base by drawing on anthropology, psychology, and philosophy, as well as on literary/cultural theory and queer theory. Touching Encounters is very well-researched, well-organized, and well-written - an original and fascinating contribution to the new sociology of sex. (Tim Dean, University at Buffalo, SUNY)
