Abstract

"Morality is a specific human attribute which, however, does not enjoy universal recognition. Its disregard in practice is matched by the disagreement concerning its justification. The repudiation of moral restraints on sexual conduct did not start with the sex revolution of the sixties, but it took the AIDS crisis to slow down the expansion of the culture of promiscuity that became fashionable with the emancipation from traditional values."--Publisher's description.
