Dr. Rosenberg is a humane writer. But, as with so many Christian ministers, his humaneness has become a brightly packaged commodity. When he deals with "the various kinds of love," his vision barely strays beyond the assorted positional relationships of the heterosexual family. But each is seen in the context of familial and communal responsibilities, not individual passions. He feels the individualpassion view of love, the "Romantic Heresy," to be the root of modern man's damning alienation.

The entire re-evaluation of the homosexual condition is a chief goal of the current homophile movement, more than the treadmill task of lobbying for or against the latest proposed city or state ordinances about the policing of public restrooms. This re-evaluative process must relate to a broad and deep re-evaluation of social forms generally.

Although Dr. Rosenberg makes little reference to homosexuality, his attempts to set the Old Testament ideas of sex and love and social responsibility in a clear context and to criticize the current fads of psychoanalysis, sex-for-sex's-sake, and guilt theology, should interest those who seek a sound understanding of homosexuality and society.

He argues that modern definitions of love (or sex) tend to be selfish, pleasure oriented, and self-destructive. A healthy love, he feels, cannot come from the atomistic individualist context, but only in a context which relates the "I-Thou" relationship to communal concerns. It is the most pivotal theoretical, juridical and therapeutic question for us whether homosexual loves can be today given any substantial communal context.

While I found many details that were annoying in this book, I would nonetheless urge it on every thoughtful homosexual.

Dr. Evans says, "The very fact that throughout the mammalian scale a great many more males than females engage in homosexual behavior is in itself suggestive of a constitutional factor."
