The same "The Incredible Story of Sex" and "The Incredible Story of Sex" now in a new, expanded, expanded, corrected, further edited edition! And the authors once again invite us on the most fulfilling journey through the history of sexuality from the Paleolithic to the future, from Babylon to Mesoamerica.
The 360 pages of the book cover, in fact, the entire known history of mankind and consider the perception of the sexual sphere by our civilization from the earliest times to the present. Brenot explores what eroticism actually is, how superstition and morality shaped sexuality, how the use of pornography has changed in the digital age, and how some ancient civilizations were way ahead of their time when it came to gender equality.
Is sexual behavior universal? Are desires and eroticism expressed in the same way in different cultures and at different times? Are the prohibitions the same? Are some societies freer than others? Does evolution move towards suppression of impulses or, on the contrary, towards their release? And, in the end, is it possible to stop reading when sex is written so informatively, factually and wittily? The publication is not afraid of hot issues and sheds light on topics that previously remained in the shadows.
