A provocative new book that explores the mystery of human courtship, love, and monogamy and challenges your views of human sexuality. No compelling explanation currently exists for the sudden emergence of big-brained Homo sapiens 150,000 years ago. Leonard Shlain argues that profound changes in female sexuality hold the key to this mystery.
Throughout Sex, Time, and Power, Shlain offers carefully reasoned discussions on the evolution of language, the origin of marriage, male aggressions, homosexuality, orgasms, menses, and menopause. Written in a lively and accessible style, Sex, Time, and Power is certain to generate heated debate in the media and among readers interested in human evolution and the history of sexuality.
