... read about you and your loved ones, your courtships, your family lives and your sex lives, as presented in the pages of novels, plays, and films. More importantly, learn about the Pygmalion Project -- how we all try to sculpt our loved ones into copies of ourselves, and how we are manipulated by them in return.
"As a whole, the characters I've discussed show the Artisans to be born lovers, skillful, entertaining, spontaneous, physically sensitive, sexually stimulating -- the natural artists of intimate relations." -- Dr. Stephen Montgomery
Volume One features portraits of four Artisan (SP) types:
The Sensualist --
"A man with my type of temperament
should really... get through three women a day with even rufflling his
hair. That's what I'm like inside. That's my appetite.
That's me. I'm a three a day man." -- Alan Ayckbourn
The Performer --
"He danced well, as if it were natural
and joyous in him to dance, [with] a certain subtle exultation like glamour
in his movement, and his face the flower of his body." --
D.H. Lawrence
The Instrumentalist --
"You feel all the rounds, the
smooths, the sharp edges, the flats and hollows, the lights and shades,
the cools and warms. The colors and textures. There's hundreds
of little differences and all fitting together." -- Joyce Cary
The Promoter --
"While ther is life, there is
hope, my dear, and I intend to make a man of you yet." -- William
Thackrey
