Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Reprint. Light reading creases, slight bump to base of spine. ; Nice tight copy, no names or marks inside. ; 168 pages; Why are humans one of the few species to have sex in private? Why do humans have sex any day of the month or year, including when the female is pregnant, beyond her reproductive y…ears, or between her fertile cycles? Why are human females one of the few mammals to go through menopause? Human sexuality seems normal to us but it is bizarre by the standards of other animals. Jared Diamond argues that our strange sex lives were as crucial to our rise to human status as were our large brains. He also describes the battle of the sexes in the human and animal world over parental care, and why sex differences in the genetic value of parental care provide a biological basis for the all-too-familiar different attitudes of men and women towards extramarital sex. Book Club Edition.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Human sexuality seems normal to us but it is bizarre by the standards of other animals. Jarad Diamond Argues that our stange sex lives were as crucial to our rise to human status as were our large brains. Among the usual aspects of human sexuality siscussed are female menopause, the role of men in human… societies, our having sex in private, our often having sex for fun rather than procreation and the expansion of women's breasts even before use in lactation. These features might seem too natural to require explanation, but on reflection thay prove surprisingly difficult to account for. 176 pages.
