    Heterosexuality

    Heterosexuality

    Engels. halflinnen gebonden met omslag, vrijwel als nieuw.

    In 1966 William H. Masters and Virginia E. Johnson published their landmark study, Human Sexual Response, one of the first books to report scientifically on a subject shrouded in taboo and prudery - a book that changed the way Americans think about sexuality and is often credited with helping to start the sexual revolution because of its bold, careful debunking of myths. Today, almost three decades later, critically important changes have occurred in the social, legal, political, scientific, medical, epidemiological, psychological, emotional, public, and private perspectives on sexuality. In Heterosexuality, the world's foremost trio of sex researchers and therapists - Masters, Johnson, and their longtime colleague, Robert C. Kolodny, M.D. - addresses these changes with a comprehensive, definitive, and up-to-date survey of virtually every aspect of the sexual relations between women and men. Here, for the first time ever, is Masters, Johnson, and Kolodny's practical program of exercises for all those seeking to enhance their responsivity or deal with a sexual problem without the aid of a therapist. Sexuality is the source and arena of some of the deepest joys men and women share, and some of the deepest vulnerabilities. Writing with candor and sensitivity, Masters, Johnson, and Kolodny provide the best, most sensible, and most useful information on topics as diverse as sexual response and sexuality, love and intimacy, performance anxiety, male and female sexual dysfunction, compulsive sexual behavior, sexual and reproductive health, conception, contraception, fertility, HIV and AIDS, teenage sexuality, sex and aging, and extramarital affairs. Heterosexuality cuts through the platitudesand media hype to delve deeply into the sexual psyche, promoting, a fuller and richer understanding of male-female sexuality for the general public, and for social scientists, mental health professionals, and medical practitioners.

    Gender and Society....

    Gender and Society. Essays Based on Herbert Spencer Lectures Given in the University of Oxford

    Hardcover with dustjacket, in excellent condition.

    In this eclectic collection of essays, distinguished scholars from different and specialized disciplines discuss aspects of sex, gender, and gender and society. In his contribution to this series of essays on Gender and Society, Peter Goodfellow states, 'sex, the biological separation intomale and female, is controlled by DNA and is determined by DNA. Gender, the arbitrary social division between masculine and feminine, is a social construct that involves interaction between an individual and society.' The definition of gender offered by Goodfellow is cogently developed by GermaineGreer in her essay on women as victims of rapeDSone of the newest and most controversial aspects of modern criminology. Susan Watkins suggests that the understanding of gender has influenced the analysis of population change, the efforts by activists to ensure reductions in fertility internationally,and the acceptance of birth control in local communities in Kenya. This analysis is complimented by Michele Le Doeuff in a discussion of the complex interplay between reduced fertility, increased literacy, and the function of work in the 'everyday life of every woman whatever her social class orlevel of education.' The question of how the sexes differ in their perception and processing of information about their external world is tackled by Lucia Jacobs within a biological and evolutionary context. She proposes that sexual selection should be given credit for the rapid evolution of ourunique abilities and complex culture concluding that 'it is the female that is the smaller, the "ecological" sex, best adapted to survive in the ecological niche of the species, and it is the male who carries the heavier burden or handicap of sexual selection, his fitness dependent on arbitrarytraits that reduce his competitive ability as a human being, although they are all too necessary for his competitive ability as a man.' The contribution of the sociobiologist Sarah Hrdy focussed on sexual selection, drawing on a wide range of research on the physiological and behavioural responsesof subhuman primates but, appropriately, drawing her inspiration from Spencer's own writings on physical beauty and its consequences for posterity. The chapters in this book were originally delivered as The Herbert Spencer Lectures in 1995 at Oxford University.
