Publisher's Summary

Sex, The World History: Through Time, Religion and Culture is a daring, deep historical-anthropological exploration. It is also a scathing condemnation of religion and its insistent control of sex.

The book explores society's complex relationship between spirituality and sexuality. The supremacy of the mother goddess throughout most of human existence, and her relatively recent fall, is detailed. Women's power, prestige, status, rank, position, and eminence are explored through cultures and time.

This audiobook shares original sources and explicit literary excerpts from throughout the world. Ancient and modern cultures are linked by historical and anthropological content, inviting the listener to experience various views of sexuality. Sex, The World History traces sexual attitudes from the transcendent to the bizarre throughout the world's cultures. Astonishing revelations, such as well-documented bisexuality of most human societies, are disclosed This book has been heralded by the LGBT community as "the first, gender honest history of sex". It is truly an encyclopedic tour of the sexuality of humankind.

Profile Image for Christian Hamel

this book is very informative.

I'm glad I bought this audiobook. It is very informative about sexuality. Religion and culture have kept us in the dark about our true sexual nature. I will buy his other books with pictures on Kindle to go along with this book and I will listen to it again.
