"In einem mehrbändigen Werk zeigt Dian Hanson die traditionsreichsten Abenteuer der männlichen Phantasie"
ARD-Kulturreport, München
Germany
"Ein ausführlicher Überblick über die unbeschreibliche Erfolgsgeschichte der Männermagazine - und ein Werk, das man definitiv nicht unter der Matratze verstecken muss."
Profil, Wien
Austria
"Once again, TASCHEN knocks its publishing rivals straight down with these historical compendiums of men's periodicals. Even Arena, with its hatred of all things nostalgic, was won over."
Arena, London

"Wow. Now this is a real work of art. It makes for a fascinating collection either from the point of view that it's an education into the history of porn, or simply as a gallery of gaudy images. The two volumes together are a considerable vault of images and information, and this should be a very easy sale to any customer who bought and enjoyed Volume 1."
Erotic Trade Only, London

"L`événement historiographique du moment (…) C`est passionnant (…) Il y a une richesse iconographique extraordinaire (…)."
France culture, "Mauvais Genres", Paris

"Die Verlegerin Dian Hanson weiß, was Männer wirklich wollen - und was Frauen aus Männermagazinen lernen können."
SonntagsBlick, Zürich
Switzerland
"Una lección de historia a través de las revistas masculinas del siglo XX. (…) A través de seis magníficos volúmenes, la editorial TASCHEN nos ofrece una lección de Historia de las revistas de los hombres. Ya sabes, nada de deportes, moda, caza o pesca o cómo construir una caseta para perros en el jardín. La base de estas revistas son los cuerpos femeninos más o menos descubiertos."
Maxim, Madrid

"THIS is definitely not a history of the various grooming titles that style themselves men's magazines these days--indeed it works as an anecdote to those emasculating publications. Lovingly complied by Dian Hanson, "the Tina Brown of porn," these two volumes sweep across 57 years of magazines with page after page of covers from such titles as Lush, Chicks and Chuckles, and even old Esquire. Volume 1 goes from 1900 to WWII, taking in detective and naturalist titles and "meeting the needs of men at war." Volume 2 goes to 1957 and gets a little darker, offering John Willie, Playboy, the pulp titles and of coarse Betty Page. Four more volumes are planned, promising to take us up to present day."
The New York Post, New York
United States
"Cet ouvrage trilingue est une somme. Il répertorie minutieusement tous les magazines masculins ayant existé depuis le XIXè siècle. (…) Documenté et coquin."
Senso, Paris
France
"Spank you very much, TASCHEN: Nackte Schöne 1900 - 1940. Retro-Illustrationen und kecke Fotos! Kult!"
