The Big Book of Legs - Reviews
"TASCHEN's third in a series of body-part-focused tomes The Big Book Of Legs covers the limbs at length, from thigh to toe...besides a superb collection of evocative photographs, Legs is also loaded with fascinating facts...at the end of legs you will likely be left with just one question: Is The Big Book Of Vaginas next?"NYLON Magazine, New YorkUnited States |

"Der deutsche TASCHEN Verlag weiß, wie man Bildbände verkauft. Die jüngste Publikation aus des weltweit größten Verkäufers von Kunstbüchern widmet sich dem weiblichen Bein, dessen erotische Anziehungskraft so unbestritten wie geheimnisvoll ist ... Der TASCHEN-Verlag, bekannt durch seine schwergewichtigen Kunstbuchreihen, beschränkt sich in seinem Bildband jedoch nicht nur auf schöne Bilder. Herausgeberin Dian Hanson verfolgt dazu auch die Darstellung des weiblichen Beins durch die Geschichte - von den burlesken Beinshows des frühen 19. Jahrhunderts über die Popularisierung des Pfennigabsatzes in den Fünfzigerjahren bis zum goldenen Zeitalter der Leg Magazines in den 1960ern."Basler Zeitung, BaselSwitzerland |

"Happily, the discerning pervs at TASCHEN will soon release The Big Book of Legs. At first, you'll just want to stare at the pictures...But don't skip the text. It's written by Dian Hanson, a former editor of that esteemed rag Juggs. Happily, her expertise extends below the waist, too-here, she provides dinner-party nuggets on everything from flappers and stilettos to busty pinup queen Bettie Page's second-sexiest pair. (Hanson's earlier paean to sweater puppies is also worth picking up; stick to Legs, however, for late-night coffee-table sessions with ladyfriends-or in-laws)."Urbandaddy.com, New YorkUnited States |

"The latest edition of Dian Hanson's Big Book series for TASCHEN is the first one you can actually leave out on your coffee table. Huge photos of breast (part one) and penises (part two) may not have been for everyone, but surely nobody will object to The Big Book Of Legs."Men.style.com, New YorkUnited States |

"Les cames són, per excel.lència, una de les parts de l'anatomía femenina més veneradas pels homes des del princips dels nostres dies . (...) Tan si es cert com si no ho és ara la editora Dian Hanson explora, en el llibre The Big Book of Legs , de l'editorial TASCHEN, com les cames femeninas es van a convertir en objecte central per a l'emancipació de la dona. (...) D'aquesta manera, a través de 400 fotos presses per mestres del art de les cames, com Irving Klaw, entre d'altres, aquesta obra ens presenta un recorregut per les diferents èpoques en què les dones vana començar lluir sense pudor les seves cames boniques, i alhora dona desposta a preguntes com Qui va a ser la primer a dur talons alts?"Plaers, Periódico de Catalunya, BarcelonaSpain |
