The Function of the Orgasm

Wilhelm Reich

FSG, NY. 1973. First FSG paperback edition. Some sticker residue and rubbing to rear, but quite clean, hard to imagine it's a 1973 edition! Very good.

From the publisher:

"This book describes Reich's medical and scientific work onthe living organism from his first efforts at the Medical School of the University of Vienna in 1919 to the laboratory experiments in Oslo in 1939 which revealed the existence of a radiating biological energy, orgone energy.

The subject of "sexuality" is basic to this work, and Reich shows clearly its importance for human life and its relevance in understanding the social problems of our time."

Did you know the FDA seized thousands of copies of this book and burned it? What's up with that? Maybe he was onto something? Maybe Reich is part of a long history of suppression and deserves, nay, NEEDS to be read to understand how we might progress as a society? Proud to present this one. Gooners, unite.
