Description

Until the mid-20th century, sexual psychology and physiology were almost not studied— as if sex were something shameful and hidden rather than a natural biological process. Scientists feared public opinion, religious intolerance, political pressure, and prejudice. Today, few people realize that specialists study sex like any other aspect of human physiology. Mary Roach explains how this science developed, combining scientific interest, journalistic openness, humor, and curiosity about the topic.
