Customer Reviews

Cheap & bought new and it came in amazing condition!

I go to college and at the bookstore located at my college this book in PAPERBACK was priced at $170 dollars. Which is ridiculous as you can imagine! When I got this book in the mail, it was in mint condition (I did buy it new) and I was very happy paying the price for a better quaility book. It did not come with the CD that a book might in the book store but lucky for me my teacher said she wasn't going to use it. Overal I reccomend buying this book.

Awesome product and service

Our Sexuality Needed this book for class, and it was really informative. The particular seller was excellent, fast shipping, and wonderful service!

get the straight scoop

This textbook is very suitable for personal education. It explores every aspect of human sexuality and covers everything from prenatal sexual development to issues encountered by the elderly. Also covered: homosexuality; theories on love; the role of fantasy; prostitution, sexually transmitted diseases; masturbation; celibacy; contraception; rape; sexual dysfunction; and how diabetes and other chronic diseases impact our sexual lives. It short, this book covers it all. Let's face it, we're all a little uncomfortable discussing sexuality. Get this book to get the straight scoop.

Textbook used for upper level college course. Informative!

The course is called HUMAN SEXUALITY and many jokes have been born around it! "When is the lab?" etc. But the editions of this book have been used for as long as I can remember, and now that I am in the class I can see why! From a standpoint of information it is unsurpassed I am certain! It is easy reading, informative, and as the first sexually EXPLICIT textbook I have ever used it has been very easy to deal with! The book goes step-by-step through the basics of human anatomy and topics range from STD's to abortion to Loving relationships in very straightforward language. Our professor has been able to encorporate group work, and field trips as well as our own personal study. Discussions suggested from the book have been some of the best ever!

Informative college textbook!

Easy to read. Basics of human anatomy start the book after a bit of background on human sexuality and gender roles. Explicit pictures and photos. Topics range from STD's and abortion to Cybersex and Loving Relationships. Text gives suggestions for further discussion throughout! Useful definitions appear on the pages where they first appear in the text. Paper and script used very easy on the eyes. Website sources and further readings suggested at the end of every section. Small glossary, but definitions taken care of in text. Author and subject indexes extensive. Very informative!
