Hi! You're looking at a SUPERB condition book which is RARE, hard to find and OUT OF PRINT and a classic humorous survey of the American Sexual Revolution written by standup comic ALLAN SHERMAN--the book is an unstated First Edition 1975 Playboy Press Book mass market paperback copy. This book is in SUPERB condition and has a couple of light creases on the center of the spine edge, a single, tiny light discolored spot on the lower center opening spine edge, very slight creases on the upper right tip of the front cover and left tips of the back cover, a couple of very slight thumb creases on the centers of the covers and just slight shelfwear and slight evidence of gentle browsing but NO other significant imperfections!   The book is titled The Rape of the A*P*E* (*American *Puritan *Ethic): The Official History of the Sexual Revolution 1945-1973--The Obscening of America, An R*S*V*P* (*Redeeming *Social *Value *Pornography) and it was written by ALLAN SHERMAN; it was published by Playboy Press Books in 1975 and is an unstated 1st Edition copy.

The Rape of the A*P*E* (American Puritan Ethic) is the ultimate sex book. It is the hilarious but true story of 27 salacious years of American history - the Sex Revolution - America's longest and hottest war. As Allen Sherman puts it: "There is a brief but telling instant when a boy is taking off a girl's underpants, during which she must give her assistance; if she doesn't lift her behind a split second, it is impossible. Ours was a nation of girls who would rather die than openly contribute to their own seduction. It is a tribute to the girls of 1940 that they learned how to lift their asses without seeming to be lifting their asses. Sometimes they did it with a ho-hum and a stretch, pretending to be utterly bored, meanwhile shifting their position just long enough for the expert panty snatcher to do his job. I have witnessed it many times, this fantastic arabesque girls do and every time I am overwhelmed with the sheer creative artistry of it. It belongs among the great moments of ballet."

A fantastic find, and a beautiful copy of this book!
