"An outstanding and highly original contribution to the growing international literature on sex and relationships education. The book´s goal of placing sexual violence center-stage in sexuality education is to be welcomed. Its concern to take seriously what participants of different ages bring to, and expect from, sex makes a refreshing change. Its desire to promote an ´ethics of sex´, in which pleasure takes its place alongside dignity and respect for difference, marks a major advance on recent thinking and debate." - Peter Aggleton, Scientia Professor of Education and Health, Centre for Social Research in Health, University of New South Wales, Australia

"Moira Carmody has made a major contribution to the way we think about sexual ethics, and her reputation as someone who has worked to apply that thinking in practical contexts is unmatched. This book is indispensable for everyone who is concerned about sexual violence, sexuality education, issues of consent, and sexual ethics." - Feona Attwood, Professor in Cultural Studies, Communication & Media, Middlesex University London, UK
