About This Item
London: H.K. Lewis & Co. Ltd.. Good. 1919. First Edition. Hardcover. "There are few subjects on which a modern book is more urgently needed than on the delicate topic of autoerotism, and Mr. Menzies is to be greatly commended for his courage in attacking a problem the discussion of which has been so effectively banned by the cowardice of modern society that it is rarely alluded to outside the pernicious files of quack literature." - Foreword. Content is divided into four parts: The Psychology of Masturbation; The Pathology of Masturbation; Ethical Considerations; The Treatment of Masturbation. [ii]-viii, 9-96 pp. Bibliography. Footnotes. Moderate wear to original burgundy cloth brightly lettered in gilt. Clean, tight and unmarked. Moderate tanning to endpapers. No dust jacket, presumably as issued. A quality copy of this important early study. IMDb reports that this title appeared, lined up in a cabinet with other old books on related topics, in the 1973 gothic supernatural horror film "The Legend of Hell House".; 12mo .
