I would highly recommend this book, as I have said, for the brilliance of chapter 7 and also because the succubus is a neglected aspect of our study of gender issues that Ayers passionately and articulately brings to life.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e - Martin Seager, \u003cem\u003eInternational Journal of Jungian Studies\u003c\/em\u003e, March 2012\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"This book is part of the movement to save humanity from a warrior code of masculinity that belongs in a former era.
