I’d like to thank the great people at the Asexuality Visibility Network (
www.asexuality.org
) for sharing their views of and experiences with asexuality – one potential facet of Sherlock Holmes – with me. And a big thank you goes to David Jay, for letting me bug him with so many (awkwardly private) questions about the many shades of asexuality.

I’m very grateful to all the people and organisations who share their historical images: the Library of Congress, the Wellcome Library London, the Stadtbibliothek J.G. Säume, Grimma, the Galerie de l'Observatoire Océanologique de Villefranche-sur-Mer, the British Library, the US National Library of Medicine, and many Pinterest and Flickr users.
