The images are generally fragments of women's bodies: a breast, a foot, a chin, a face, or just an eye. This makes it sound as if the women are objectified, but the photos always seem to invite us to revel in the beauty of the form. I, at least, feel that the pictures produce a sort of tender admiration (an "erotic" gaze, in the proper Greek sense of the term).
I disagreed with the reviewer who found Mary Gaitskill's Afterword "vulgar." (But then, Gaitskill tends to polarize readers.) Her brief essay explores her own feelings and experiences with how she and we view the naked female form, including its beauties, power, and vulnerabilities.
I found this a moving book; perhaps you will too.

Not quite the scope of Hardy and Wright, or Niven and Zuckerman. And of course it's now dated, but the elemntary exposition is worth it.
The author's proof of Bertrand's Postulate became an offprint of Scripta Mathematica demonstrating it's merit (Scripta Mathematica Vol. X1, Nos. 2, June 1945).
