Packed with illustrations, it is a mixed bag stuffed with all manner of wonderful items, all unified by just one common denominator. They all have something to do with one or other of the eighty-plus different names by which one single, simple act is known to those of us who talk dirty in English (and which are noted in all their glory in the appendix). "The Social History of Fellatio" doesn't simply tell "everything you ever wanted to know" about the subject. It also details everything you ever wanted to try.
