In our cutting edge western society, bisexuality has come to mean simultaneously a password to popularity and success in the media, a slur meaning any number of negative, normally promiscuous attributes, and a vague, undefined category of sexual preference that encompasses a very mixed bag. The introductory essay in this book highlights civilisations where bisexuality has flourished, and goes on to showcase the lives of more than 100 famous bisexuals like Alexander the Great, Sappho, Cassanova, Marquis de Sade, Oscar Wilde and Virginia Woolf.
