Recensione:

'As entertaining as it is informative. It sets a standard in gay dictionaries and encyclopedias that others should note and follow. Highly recommended.' - Gay Times

'A good job of an impossible task, looking beyond the borders of North America, Australia and northern Europe to include people who have made important contributions from outside the gay and lesbian mainstream.' - Diva
