(This argument was quickly-and falsely-simplified to \"all sex is rape\" in the public arena, adding fire to Dworkin's already radical persona.) In her introduction to this edition of \u003ci\u003eIntercourse\u003c\/i\u003e, Ariel Levy, the author of \u003ci\u003eFemale Chauvinist Pigs\u003c\/i\u003e, discusses the circumstances of Dworkin's untimely death in the spring of 2005, and the enormous impact of her life and work.
