Unveils the biological evolution of our sexual behaviour, revealing the ancestral origins of our pleasure, passions, perversity and complex feelings about the sexual act.
Why are the human penis and testicles so much larger than those of closely related primates? What are the evolutionary purposes of male and female orgasm? Are they different? Why did breasts evolve? In this book, the reader witnesses an evolutionary striptease that shows how human sexuality reaches remotely back in time a long line of nonhuman and inhuman ancestors, from apes to other mammals to reptiles, amphibians, fish and other vertebrates. The authors follow the path of our sexuality all the way back to single cells - promiscuous bacteria, tiny colonial beings incessantly exchanging their genes - and show that virtually all our ancestors have left their mark on human sexuality.
