EDITORIAL
FOR CENTURIES men and women seem to have been trying to find out ways of having sex without having babies - in Fanny Hill's day, apparently, liberated ladies used half an orange (emptied, of course). Such is the frightening brilliance of modern science that today we have no less than eight different ways of producing babies without the necessity of having sex first. Mono-nuclear reproduction it's called. One technique is called cloning, a word that will be on everyone's lips when the film of Ira Levin's terrifying novel The Boys from Brazil is released later this year. Tony Slinn offers a layman's introduction.
We went right up the market for one of the juiciest erotic extracts we've seen for ages - drawings by John Boyce and words by one of this century's greatest diarists and writers, Anais Nin, who describes worrien's sexuality like nobody else. Mark Royston presents another of his very popular nostalgic memories of sex and steam rail and there's great new fiction from SF writer Trevor Hoyle and a very special literary discovery, Niema Ash. All this, plus Fiona Richmond, cartoons, comment and fantastic visual spreads, make up an issue we are mighty proud of./Roger Baker.
