the "playboy philosophy" wasn't published as a book, (i suppose it might've been later), but it was initially published in the magazine as an on-going editorial series that lasted some 15, or so issues. hefner was also quite the philanthropist. contributing to many left wing causes including the reform of pot laws and sexual laws that criminalized common sexual acts such as oral sex. in the 70s, at "playboy's" height in sales. during the disco-cocaine era, hefner was hit with a drug scandel that resulted in a govt investigation that came close to destroying hef's life. hef admitted himself, it was a wake-up call that things were getting out of hand. hef cleaned up his lifestyle and averted drug and racketeering charges. of all the rich people i've ever known about, i find hef to be among the highest in integrity and generally using his wealth for the benefit of society. like everyone else he had his flaws but i think he was alright and i admire him on many levels.
