"Kane Race's" Pleasure Consuming Medicine" supplies what we have missed for so long: a radical but responsible exploration of both the ethics and the politics of pleasure. Exhilarating in its daring and its intelligence, startling in its originality yet completely sensible in its interpretations, the book unerringly describes the paradoxical world where we now live out the cruelties and ecstasies of human embodiment."--David Halperin, author of "Saint Foucault" and "What Do Gay Men Want?"
