This anthology of almost 70 readings--from contemporary scholarly literature, trade books, popular media, as well as contributed articles-- examines the many ways in which human sexuality is socially constructed and regulated behavior, and how it is studied by social scientists.

The authors are all sociologists, sex researchers, and faculty members at Georgia State University, where they team-teach a popular sexuality and society course.
