...almost nothing to say about the psychology, ethics or origins of homosexuality, nor does it address (he question of whether the lack of any procreative aspect to sex affects homosexuality. The conclusions are stated with caution and caveats-the sample is small and may not be representative of the general homosexual population. There is also a warning that sex in the lab may differ from sex at home. As Masters told TIME Correspondent Ruth Galvin: "We can't say what happens beneath the sheets when the lights are out." The prose is opaque, studded with such assaults on English...
...perhaps something more general and therapeutic as well. Masters and Johnson's physiological approach in all their work has drawn much fire from those who rightly point out that there is more to human affection than rates of orgasm. But that same narrow focus on biology has given to many readers both knowledge and a sense of legitimacy about sex that they never had, and that can be a liberation for men and women of any persuasion...

...young to take. Today the intention to go to business school is announced, as often as not, with a shrug or a joke about becoming a "corporate fascist." And pre-meds--in the most rigorous of pre-professional tracks--work as hard as ever. Yet there is a general reluctance in most fields to jump into a lifelong career too quickly--a trend shown by rising numbers of students choosing to live and work on their own before going on to grad school...
