Lust Oxford University Press, USA, 2004. Hardcover. ISBN: Erotica. Hardback with D/J in excellent condition. The Seven Deadly Sins. From Publishers Weekly A distinguished thinker offers an unabashed defense of everyone's favorite sin, part of Oxford's series on the seven deadlies. Blackburn (The Oxford Dictionary of Philosophy; Being Good) defines lust as acute sexual desire, untrammeled by any other elements that might make it, well, sinfullike aggression, selfishness or (though he doesn't mention it) self-destructiveness.
