In this collection, an eminent group of cultural historians have explored 'the kiss' using a wide range of evidence. By analyzing 'the kiss' and its position - embedded as it is as part of our culture - it shows how history can use small gestures to take us to big issues concerning ourselves and others, the past and the present
