Eros/Power
Love in the Spirit of Inquiry

In this book filled with passion, compassion, and dispassion, Hilary Bradbury and Bill Torbert go way, way out on a limb. Sharing their erotic autobiographies with us—the beautiful and the ugly—starting with the history of their relationship with one another as professor and student, they invite exploration of the secret places where true love gets lived (and gets crushed).

Hilary and Bill take us from a place of innocence to a place of eros where all taboos are broken, while leading us into a soulful inquiry about what love is and why it matters. This book charts the sexual revolution, and yet takes us much further.
