Description

As judge and legal scholar Posner shows, we make quite rational choices about sex, based on costs and benefits perceived. Drawing on the fields of biology, law, history, religion, and economics, this study examines societies from ancient Greece to today’s Sweden and issues from masturbation, incest taboos, date rape, and gay marriage to Baby M.
