Download As PDF : Gay Life Straight Work eBook Donald West 
Donald West, psychiatrist and criminologist, published a book arguing for tolerance at a time when gays in the UK were social pariahs and legally criminals.
Now, over fifty years later, he can write openly as a gay man describing his simultaneous pursuit of a secret, fraught love-life and a precarious professional career. In investigations of the paranormal, researches into the roots of delinquency, studies of sexual crime and of society's response to sexual abuse, he advances some unpopular ideas. Although influenced by his life among a sexual minority, he tries to reach objective, evidence-based conclusions. His stories of forced secrecy and threatened exposure reflect difficulties of the past that have not completely disappeared in supposedly enlightened times.
Gay Life Straight Work eBook Donald West
Of considerable interest I should think to anyone interested in the latter day work of the Society for Psychical Research of which he was a Council member, West also provides at times harrowing details of what it was like for a gay to eke out an existence in homophobic England during the mid twentieth century. His searching analysis, from the point of view of someone with a commanding view of the subject, of the current state of contemporary psychical research or parapsychology as it is known today is particularly welcome for its candor if not somewhat depressing. But well worth the read.Product details
