Growing up gay in a straight culture, writes Thomas Cowan, challenges an individual in special ways. The result is that many gay men and lesbians have made unusual contributions to society.<\/p>\n

In Gay Men and Women Who Enriched the World, Cowan has chosen forty personalities to support his thesis. Their fields have ranged from mathematics and military strategy to art, philosophy, and economics. Each chapter is illustrated with a lively caricature by Michael Willhoite.<\/p><\/div>\n
