Here, in a break from traditional philosophical views of sex and love, Russell Vannoy presents a radical defence of sexual enjoyment without love. Vannoy argues that truly humanistic and fulfilling sex is found only when it is enjoyed for its own sake and it is divorced from traditional forms of love. The book contains insightful analyses of the philosophies of Sartre, Freud, Schopenhauer, Reich, Nagel, deSade, and others.
Russell C. Vannoy Jr., associate professor emeritus of philosophy, joined the Buffalo State faculty in 1960. He developed the college's first advanced philosophy course, Aesthetics, and in 1971, he offered one of the first courses of its kind in the nation, Philosophy of Love and Sex. Vannoy's research was widely cited, and he served as chairman of the Society for the Philosophy of Sex and Love. He retired in 1994.
