This is a good book to learn more about bisexual women in general, the ways that some come to terms with their bisexuality, how same-sex and cross-sex friendships are navigated, etc. the research was not old when published, though is now a little out-of-date, but still provides valuable information into the early-mid 2000s, important information in the history of bisexuality, giving it an enduring value. I did dock half a star for the reason that at various points in the text towards the end, I would read a block quote and feel "that's familiar" only to realize that it was because they were quoting an earlier chapter in the same work. Overall, I would recommend this to anyone interested in the subject of bisexuality. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique

This book fills a gap in the literature and research on bisexuality and friendship, presenting leading experts discussing the latest qualitative and quantitative studies on this rarely visited topic.
