The British medical journal, The Lancet, called for a an investigation into the Kinsey Institute, concluding Dr. Judith Reisman and her colleagues demolished the foundations of Kinsey's reports in her book, In Kinsey, Sex and Fraud. Among her many efforts, Dr. Reisman worked to attain an investigation of the Kinsey “cold case,” in order to reveal the basis of today’s libel of our national history, our children, women, and our families.
Dr. Reisman authored: Kinsey, Sex, and Fraud (1990), Soft Porn Plays Hardball (1991), Partner Solicitation Language as a Reflection of Male Sexual Orientation (w/Johnson, 1995), Kinsey, Crimes & Consequences (1998, 2000), Sexual Sabotage (2010), and Stolen Honor, Stolen Innocence (2013).
