"You have to admire Dian Hanson's dedication in putting together this series of books. ( ) ...an impressive book."
Erotic Trade Magazine, London

“Sit up and pay attention for a history lesson in filthy mags! Expect everything from kitsch illustrations and toe-sucking to voodoo sex.”
Bizarre Magazine, London

"After spending 25 years editing men`s magazines like Oui, Partner, Adult Cinema Review and Juggs and becoming the sexy editor for TASCHEN, Dian Hanson was in a unique position to author The History of Men`s Magazines. This impressive six volume encyclopedic set covers everything from those thrilling days of yesteryear when such titles as Spicy Mystery, Spicy Detective, French Art and Snappy fought a running battle with the censors up to the 1970s when they didn`t push the envelope but threw it away completely with hardcore porn publications."

"Houve um tempo em que, cheios de hormônios e pudores, os adolescentes escondiam revistas pornográficas no porão. Eles cresceram, casaram, tiveram filhos e morreram sem coragem de pôr na estante – ou jogar no lixo – suas velhas coleções. Sorte da jornalista americana Dian Hanson, de 50 anos, que acaba de lançar nos Estados Unidos e na Europa os dois primeiros volumes da enciclopédia History of Men's Magazines pela editora alemã TASCHEN."

"A TASCHEN lançou os últimos dois volumes de uma coleção de seis livros sobre a história das revistas masculinas. Obra de Dian Hanson, conhecida na indústria editorial pornográfica americana como a criadora da "Puritain", e ex-namorada de Robert Crumb, o desenhista em quadrinhos tarado por mulheres de bunda grande e pernas grossas. Catalogando as publicações lançadas a partir do fim da década de 60 e até os anos 80, os dois livros retratam a era de ouro das revistinhas de sacanagem."

"O fenómeno das revistas masculinas nao é recente, e a editora TASCHEN vai-nos dar uma liçao de historia. Os 6 volumes com o título History of Men`s Magazines vao nos mostrar o percursos das revistas dedicadas a asuntos masculinos desde o inicio do seculo até 1980."

"Dian Hanson — the longtime editor of Leg Show and Juggs, among others — has compiled The History of Men`s Magazines, a series of hardcover books that every red-blooded American male should own. Each handsome volume is packed with the best smut ever printed. Eye-catching covers, sexy photo-sets, cartoons, and even ads have been painstakingly catalogued for your pleasure. Latest in the ever-growing series are two recently released tomes that take an in-depth look at an era near and ear to our heart—the swingin` ‘70s! Volume 5: 1970s at the Newsstand documents the true golden age of adult magazines, when the once-taboo art of porn became a mainstream hit (…) Volume 6: 1970s Under the Counter gets even more down and dirty, showcasing raunchy and hard-core images of double penetration, lesbian sex and every other kink imaginable."

"Dian Hanson kennt die Fantasien der Männer wie keine andere Frau."

"Anekdoten, dazu jede Menge Fotos, Zeichnungen und Titelseiten fasst Männermagazin-Expertin Dian Hanson in einer bombastischen Enzyklopädie zusammen: The History of Men`s Magazines erzählt in sechs Bänden mit je über 400 Seiten, was sich in Sachen Männermagazine zwischen 1900 und 1980 getan hat."
TV Sünde, Seehausen
Germany
"These two volumes represent the last of the amazing series of books that Dian Hanson began two years back. With over 2600 pages, the series comes to an end. Now of course not everyone is going to be overjoyed at the project, and I am not about to get into a debate over censorship and adult magazines, nor take sides. These books definitely deserve a place in literature, the first books to impartially discuss the impact and origins of adult literature, up to present day (…) Hanson`s books are amazingly in depth, and from the vast amount of material she had to sift through, she did her homework well, handling the subject quite tastefully."
