An evidence-based, accessible introduction to the study of sexuality and the diverse ways in which it brings joy and challenges to our lives.

Discovering Human Sexuality has established itself as a popular and widely praised text that respects diversity both in the sexual world and among the students who read it. The backgrounds of the authors--in psychology, sociology, teaching, and writing--have made possible a text that is multidisciplinary, authoritative, sex-positive, and a delight to read.
