For those with too much spare time (or a burning desire to learn about archaic methods of birth control), a new book has come along that innovatively allows one to waste time and read about weird sex without even touching the computer.

The Humble Little Condom: A History, by Aine Collier of the University of Maryland. Because you can probably work it into a paper somewhere, and apparently the creative synonyms are worth the price of the book.

Reading about condoms made from intestines and lead kinda makes you appreciate the new-fangled kind, huh?
