330 _aMore than a word book, Homolexis highlights many significant and little known aspects of the history of homosexual behavior and the ways in which it has been viewed. Oftentimes current ideas and debates reflect developments many centuries old, and this background is trenchantly analyzed in the essays contained in this book. The main alphabetical section is complemented by an annotated bibliography of linguistics and homosexuality -- the only one of its kind -- and detailed indexes of words. As Evelyn Gettone noted, "The range of Dynes' erudition is extraordinary. This is a book that I expect to consult for many years to come." In the judgment of Vladimir Cervantes, Homolexis is "richly informative, often provocative, and never dull."
