Bed. ... an irresistible combination of pictures and prose, tells us much of what goes on in bed - a subject that tickles nearly everyone's curiosity.

Anthony Burgess, author of the best-selling 'A Clockwork Orange' and 'Earthly Powers', here turns his investigatory talents to the fact and fancy, the history and psychology of beds and mankind..." -- Dust jacket.
