From ornamentation to mutilation

[JesusA (imported)]

While I have been adding new items to the Bibliography ( http://www.eunuch.org/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=17583) on the Non-Fiction Articles board as I have catalogued them, one book that arrived in the mail today is so striking that I though that it deserved special notice, in addition to being added to the on-going bibliography project.

Mattelaer, Johan J. (2004). From Ornamentation to Mutilation: Genital Decorations and Cultural Operations in the Male. Arnhem, The Netherlands: The Historical Committee of the European Association of Urology. 240 pp.

Essentially a large format art book with scholarly text and a lengthy bibliography. Castration takes up pages 154 through 222.
