¿Por qué es divertido el sexo?
Why are humans one of the few species that conducts its sexual practices in private? And why do they practice sex any day of the month and year? Why are human females the only mammals to experience menopause? Why is the human penis so unnecessarily large? These and other important questions are answered in Jared Diamond's look at human sexual life, unique among all animal species. A professor of physiology, ornithology, and geography, and a Pulitzer Prize winner, Diamond possesses exceptional training and communication skills to delve into these issues. Human sexuality has only been an object of study for a few decades and does not lend itself to laboratory experiments. However, Diamond manages to apply his scientific knowledge and sense of humor to the fascinating evolutionary forces that shaped our sexual uniqueness, and shows how much they contributed to that unique condition of being human.
