Dr. Judith Reisman's new book, Kinsey: Crimes & Consequences; The Red Queen & The Grand Scheme, presents sinister material on the man who seduced America.The 1960s' sexual revolution was based on the most elaborate and carefully crafted scientific fraud of this century, writes author Judith Reisman. Early sexologist Alfred C. Kinsey, with his two famous reports just 50 years ago, seemingly legitimized both profligacy and deviancy, and thus established "the sexual licence he [personally] espoused." Sexual Behaviour in the Human Male (1948) and its female equivalent (1953) kicked off no-fault divorce, the wife-swapping era, the gay rights movement, classroom sex education, sex "therapy" as a growth industry, explicit imagery in the media and entertainment industry, and an avalanche of pornography and obscenity. Although Kinsey was a sexual revolutionary, Dr. Reisman contends, he was falsely portrayed by Indiana University where he worked, and the Rockefeller Foundation which funded him, "as just a normal American guy/husband/family man who simply 'discovered' that 'really' most American men commonly engaged in sexually aberrant and outlaw behaviour. Kinsey's 'research' alleged that 10% of American males were homosexual, that all of us were bisexual, that children were sexual from birth and could engage in sexual activity with adults without harm, plus a whole broad spectrum of things taught today in our schools and practised today in courts of law as fact and as true...It was fraud then, it is fraud now and it revolutionized this nation and turned us into Kinsey's [psychological] clones."His "Grand Scheme" was to eliminate normal families in favour of selective breeding predicated upon racial and sexual eugenics, she charges, and his "scientific conclusions" were concocted to advance it. The reference is to the Red Queen in Alice in Wonderland who wanted the sentence (beheading) carried out first and the verdict pronounced afterwards.Disturbing information about Kinsey's work and private life has been accumulating since his death in 1956 at age 62. (The official cause was pneumonia due to overwork, but his extensive homosexual and sado-masochistic activities were likely contributors.) Dr. Reisman revealed much of it in 1990, for example, in Kinsey, Sex and Fraud. Even last year's resolutely non-condemnatory biography by fellow Indiana University scholar James H. Jones-Alfred C. Kinsey: A Public/Private Life (Norton)-is replete with gruesomely shocking details.Kinsey: Crime and Consequences cannot be described as non-condemnatory. Its central figure, Dr. Reisman asserts, "fits the classic definition of a sexual psychopath." Had the public known that he "and his male population were sexually abnormal, the popular use of their data to change [our] law, education and public policy would have come to a screeching halt." He was able, however, to blackmail into silence associates who knew about "his extensive use of deviants, his large prison populati

Reisman is indeed a biased writer, as the reviewer from Chicago notes. Her biases are: she opposes adult men having sex with infants, she assumes that when a child screams and pushes her "male partner" away it means that the child wants the man to stop, and she is repelled by zoophilia (look it up). I, too, was incredulous that Kinsey got away with all of this pseudoscientific "research", but he did. Reisman also exposes that his partner went on to found SIECUS, the Sex Information and Education Council of the US, the leading consultant to school districts on sex education today. As far as Kinsey deserving a "thoughtful and unbiased" reviewer - he has one in James Jones, his biographer. But the facts are facts, as Jones has verified. Kinsey invented the "10 %" myth, so well known, and also was responsible for lightened penalties on child sex offenders (he proved that kids "ask for it"). Kinsey's self-inflicted injuries speak volumes about his own sex life, and there is not one single statement about Kinsey in Reisman's book that is unverified by Kinsey or his associates. I got his reports to see what they were like, and Kinsey is his own best witness against himself. His use of psychopathic sex offenders as subjects guaranted that he would get the data he wanted, and then he presented it as "normal" male behavior. If anyone wonders why sex education in schools doesn't achieve stated goals, read this book, and you will come to understand the problem. Thank you, Dr. Reisman - you are very courageous.
Are we better off after the sexual revolution?

I found Dr. Reisman's book very informative and extremely well researched. It literally is a reference book on a scandal that was perpetrated on the American people with the help of foundations and the media. My biggest question throughout the book was why this information has not come to light before now and why something has not been done. When I read a book of this type I immediately go to the bibliography, for therein lies the veracity of the author. This book is meticulously researched. I highly recommend the book not for the subject matter, which is disturbing,but for the information that is available. It answers many questions about the declining state of our society.

Dr. Reisman's book on the work and influence of Alfred C. Kinsey and Indiana University is a must read to understand the sexual revolution and its far-reaching tentacles in American culture. That which was hidden is now revealed for all who have open minds to read and understand. This is a significant book based on solid research that should be read by professionals in most every profession including clergy, lawyers, physicians, educators, legislators, social workers, and anyone interested in knowing how our sexual mores have migrated to current levels. Dr. Reisman explains in detail the crimes and consequences of Alfred C. Kinsey's contrived, criminal, and fraudelent "science" that permeates the U.S. like water in a sponge.
This book is impeacably documented and extremely compelling

Judith Reisman makes an extremely compelling case for the impact the Kinsey studies have had on the Law and culture of the world. It is clear from the material found in the Kinsey books themselves that some data was obtained by illegal experimentation. Critical terms such as marriage were redefined by the Kinsey team to manipulate the data and arrive at a contrived and desired conclusion. This book is a must read for anyone interested in the state of the culture, particularly in the US.
