Query: Good primer, little else

I think this book is good for someone S/M curious, but afraid to make the first step towards the lifestyle. It gives you a general feel for the philosophy behind S/M and D/s, and makes you feel that you are ok and safe if you want to explore these types of feelings. I found it a little too Pollyanna and politically correct for my taste, which is why I would recommend it to beginners only. It is true that it is geared towards gay leather crowds, but it is imformative for that reason if you know little about the gay Top/bottom lifestyle.
