Nudity Social Aspects

Beyond Nakedness Paul Ableman ISBN: 0910550565 (Paperback) Ableman addresses many social aspects of nudity: Adam and Eve, Lady Godiva, public baths, nudism, and the influence of missionaries on naked or nearly-naked tribes and cultures (namely, that the now-clothed natives suffered a severe decline in morality, much to the chagrin of the clergymen). Recommended.
